Cardinal numbers are essential for communication, whether you need to tell time, give your phone number, or ask about the price of an item. In this lesson, you will learn the cardinal numbers in Cebuano from one to one hundred, and practice counting and using numbers in sentences.

Vocabulary

Here are the cardinal numbers in Cebuano from one to ten:

Cebuano Pronunciation English
usa ooh-sah one
duha dooh-ha two
tulo too-loh three
upat oo-paht four
lima lee-mah five
unum oo-noom six
pito pee-toh seven
walo wah-loh eight
siyam see-yahm nine
napulo nah-poo-loh ten

Note that the pronunciation guide is only an approximation, and there may be regional variations in pronunciation.

Here are the cardinal numbers in Cebuano from eleven to twenty, which are formed by combining the numbers for ten and one to nine:

Cebuano Pronunciation English
napulo'g usa nah-poo-loh(g) ooh-sah eleven
napulo'g duha nah-poo-loh(g) dooh-ha twelve
napulo'g tulo nah-poo-loh(g) too-loh thirteen
napulo'g upat nah-poo-loh(g) oo-paht fourteen
napulo'g lima nah-poo-loh(g) lee-mah fifteen
napulo'g unum nah-poo-loh(g) oo-noom sixteen
napulo'g pito nah-poo-loh(g) pee-toh seventeen
napulo'g walo nah-poo-loh(g) wah-loh eighteen
napulo'g siyam nah-poo-loh(g) see-yahm nineteen
kawhaan kah-wah-hahn twenty

To form the multiples of ten, simply add the number for ten (napulo) after the multiple:

Cebuano Pronunciation English
taynte tahynteh thirty
kwarenta kwah-ren-tah forty
singkwenta sing-kwen-tah fifty
siyamnapulo see-yahm-nah-poo-loh sixty
pito'napulo pee-toh-nah-poo-loh seventy
walumpulo wah-loom-poo-loh eighty
siyam'napulo see-yahm-nah-poo-loh ninety
usa ka gatus oo-sah kah gah-toos one hundred

Note that in Cebuano, the word for "and" is not used when saying numbers. For example, 82 would be pronounced "walumpulo ug duha," literally meaning "eighty two."

Examples

Here are some examples of how to use cardinal numbers in sentences:

  • Usa ka ligid. (One wheel.)
  • Upat ka prutas. (Four fruits.)
  • Napulo'g lima ka tawo. (Fifteen people.)
  • Tiglima ka peso ang usa ka kopya sa dyaryo. (One copy of the newspaper costs five pesos.)

  • Count from one to twenty in Cebuano.
  • Ask someone for their phone number in Cebuano and write down their answer.
  • Tell someone how many siblings you have in Cebuano.
  • Ask someone the price of an item in a store in Cebuano.
