Arabic numbers 1 to 100 pronunciation & writing

Arabic numbers, also known as Hindu-Arabic numbers, are the ten symbols: ٠‎ (0), ١‎ (1), ٢‎ (2), ٣‎ (3), ٤‎ (4), ٥‎ (5), ٦‎ (6), ٧‎ (7), ٨‎ (8), and ٩‎ (9), which evolved from the Hindu numerals.

These numerals were introduced to the Western world by the Arab mathematicians, primarily through the work of scholars like Al-Khwarizmi and Al-Kindi during the Islamic Golden Age, from the 8th to the 14th centuries.

The history of Arabic numbers can be traced back to ancient India, where they were developed around the 6th century CE. Initially, these numerals were written using letters from the Brahmi script.

Over time, these numerals evolved into a more streamlined system, known as the Hindu numerals. These numerals were then transmitted to the Arab world through trade and cultural exchanges.

Arab mathematicians further refined the numerals, adopting them into their mathematical works. They introduced the concept of the decimal point and positional notation, which revolutionized mathematics and made complex calculations significantly easier.

The numerals eventually spread to Europe during the Middle Ages, where they gradually replaced the Roman numerals.

The adoption of Arabic numbers revolutionized mathematics, science, and commerce worldwide.

Their simplicity, efficiency, and versatility made them the standard numerical system used in mathematics and everyday life today.

From basic arithmetic to advanced calculus, Arabic numbers remain indispensable tools in modern mathematics. Their history reflects the rich cultural exchange and intellectual contributions of diverse civilizations throughout history.

Arabic numbers in Words

Despite the name, Arabic numbers (1 to 10 in arabic), the digits 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, actually originated in India.

Traded by mathematicians and astronomers, these numerals eventually reached the Arab world where they were refined and spread throughout Europe.

Today, this ingenious system, combining the ten digits with a positional value based on the location of a digit within a number, is the most widely used system in the world.

number 1 in arabic

The number one in Arabic is واحد (wahid), pronounced with a long “ah” sound in “wah” and a short “ee” sound in “hid.” It translates literally to “one” or “single.”

Arabic numbers 11 to 19

Numbers from 11 to 20 represent the continuation of the counting sequence. At 11, we find “أحد عشر”, followed by “اثنا عشر” for 12, and “ثلاثة عشر” for 13.

These numbers maintain the pattern of adding “عشر” (ten) to the units place.

Moving on, we reach “أربعة عشر” for 14, “خمسة عشر” for 15, and so forth until “عشرون” (20).

These numbers mark a transition from the initial single digits to the double digits, signifying a broader range of quantities and possibilities.

They are fundamental in various contexts, from age representation to numerical calculations and beyond, laying the groundwork for more complex mathematical concepts.

Arabic numbers 20 to 29

Arabic numbers from 20 to 29 continue the counting sequence, introducing the concept of the tens place with the number 20, “عشرون”.

This forms the foundation for larger numbers in the Arabic numbers system. Moving on to 21, we have “واحد و عشرون” which literally translates to “one and twenty”.

Similarly, 22 is pronounced “اثنان و عشرون” (ithnan wa ‘ishrun), where “ithnan” means two.

The pattern continues with 23 pronounced “ثلاثة و عشرون” (thalatha wa ‘ishrun) for 23, and so forth.

These numbers play a vital role in everyday Arabic conversations, from expressing one’s age to discussing quantities or time.

For instance, when referring to someone who is 25 years old, one would say “عمره خمسة و عشرون سنة” (umruhu khamsa wa ‘ishrun sana), meaning “His age is twenty-five years”.

Similarly, when discussing quantities, such as 28 books, it would be “ثمانية و عشرون كتاباً” (thamaniya wa ‘ishrun kitaban).

These numbers are integral not only in spoken language but also in written Arabic, appearing in various contexts such as literature, mathematics, and daily communication.

number 20 in arabic

For twenty and above, Arabic uses a different system than the one used for eleven to nineteen. Here’s the breakdown for twenty:

• عشرون (ʿishrun): This word specifically translates to “twenty.”

Pronunciation	Arabic	English
ʿIsh-run	عشرون	twenty
li-di ʿishrun kitāban	لدي عشرون كتابًا	I have twenty books.

number 21 in arabic

We learned the special construction for numbers eleven to nineteen. However, for twenty-one, Arabic reverts to the standard way of forming numbers.

Here’s the breakdown:

• واحد (wahid): This translates to “one” (as you already know).
• وعشرون (wa ʿishrun): This literally translates to “and twenty.”

Wahid wa ʿishrun combines “one” and “and twenty” to specifically mean “twenty-one.”

Arabic numbers 30 to 39

Arabic numbers from 30 to 39 build upon the foundational understanding of the tens place established with the number 30, “ثلاثون” (thalathoon).

These numbers continue the pattern of combining the units with the tens to form larger numbers.

For instance, 31 is pronounced “واحد و ثلاثون” (wahid wa thalathoon), literally translating to “one and thirty”. Similarly, 32 is “اثنان و ثلاثون” (ithnan wa thalathoon), where “ithnan” means two.

This pattern continues with 33 pronounced “ثلاثة و ثلاثون” (thalatha wa thalathoon) for 33, and so forth up to 39.

These numbers are not only essential for counting but also for various practical applications.

For example, when discussing someone’s age, such as 35 years old, you would say “عمره خمسة و ثلاثون سنة” (umruhu khamsa wa thalathoon sana), meaning “His age is thirty-five years”.

Similarly, when discussing quantities, such as 38 books, it would be “ثمانية و ثلاثون كتاباً” (thamaniya wa thalathoon kitaban).

Understanding these numbers is crucial for everyday communication, whether it’s in discussing ages, quantities, or any other numerical information in Arabic.

number 30 in arabic

The number 30 in Arabic is ثلاثون (thalāthūn). Unlike numbers 21 to 29, thirty has its own unique form.

Here’s a breakdown:

Pronunciation	Arabic	English

li-di thalāthūn kitāban	لدي ثلاثون كتابًا	I have thirty books.

number 31 in arabic

Now that you’ve learned the patterns for numbers up to 30, here’s how to say 31 in Arabic:

• واحد وثلاثون (wahid wa thalāthūn): This literally translates to “one and thirty.”

While Arabic has a unique term for thirty (thalāthūn), numbers above thirty follow the same pattern we’ve seen for numbers above twenty.

Arabic numbers 40 to 49

Arabic numbers from 40 to 49 continue the pattern established in the previous tens, with the base number “أربعون” (arba’oon) for 40.

As with the previous numbers, these numbers are formed by combining the tens place with the units.

For example, 41 is pronounced “واحد و أربعون” (wahid wa arba’oon), which translates to “one and forty”.

Similarly, 42 is “اثنان و أربعون” (ithnan wa arba’oon), where “ithnan” means two. This pattern continues with 43 pronounced “ثلاثة و أربعون” (thalatha wa arba’oon) for 43, and so forth up to 49.

These numbers are fundamental for various aspects of Arabic communication. For instance, when discussing someone’s age, like 45 years old, you would say “عمره خمسة و أربعون سنة” (umruhu khamsa wa arba’oon sana), meaning “His age is forty-five years”.

Likewise, when expressing quantities, such as 48 books, it would be “ثمانية و أربعون كتاباً” (thamaniya wa arba’oon kitaban).

Understanding these numbers is essential for everyday conversations, whether it’s in discussing ages, quantities, or any other numerical information in Arabic numbers.

number 40 in arabic

The number 40 in Arabic numbers is أربعون (ʼarbaʻūna). Unlike numbers 21 to 39, forty has its own unique form.

Arabic numbers 80 to 89

Arabic numbers from 80 to 89 continue the counting sequence, with the base number “ثمانون” (thamanun) representing 80.

These numbers follow the same pattern as previous tens, combining the units with the tens place.

For example, 81 is pronounced “واحد و ثمانون” (wahid wa thamanun), which translates to “one and eighty”.

Similarly, 82 is “اثنان و ثمانون” (ithnan wa thamanun), where “ithnan” means two. This pattern continues with 83 pronounced “ثلاثة و ثمانون” (thalatha wa thamanun) for 83, and so forth up to 89.

These numbers are fundamental for expressing ages, quantities, and other numerical information in Arabic numbers.

For instance, when discussing someone’s age, like 85 years old, you would say “عمره خمسة و ثمانون سنة” (umruhu khamsa wa thamanun sana), meaning “His age is eighty-five years”.

Similarly, when expressing quantities, such as 88 books, it would be “ثمانية و ثمانون كتاباً” (thamaniya wa thamanun kitaban).

Understanding these numbers is essential for everyday conversations and practical applications in Arabic-speaking contexts.
