1. Introduction: This time. Stay well. Stay well. A a. Hello, everyone. I'm
delighted that you have decided to join me
for another French course. Today we will have
a look at numbers, dates, and time in French. By the end of this course, you will be able to count 0-1 billion or more
if you ever need to. You will also be able to use ordinal number like
first or second. Finally, you will be
able to tell the time in French and you will
know how to say today's date. Let's get started.
2. Numbers 0 99: Now we're going to have
a look at some numbers. We're going to start 0-19. I pronounced the numbers twice. For zero, zero, zero, one, two, do, do. Four, cut cat five, sunk, sunk. Six, is is seven, The set, eight, with, with. Nine, no. Ten, this, this. 11 12, does does 13 tres. 14 15 counts. 16 says. For 17, 18 and 19, as you can see, they've
got a different structure. They literally
means 17 means 107, 18 means 10819 means 109. So 17 is set, D set, 18 disut disut 19 diseno Diseng. I'll repeat all the
numbers altogether. Zero D trounc set with nu, this dots at cars,
says, this set, diet, ding Now we're
going to count 20-39. 20. Now you can
see for 21 and 31, we have to add the word and E. It's just because of the liaison,
it sounds better. 21 in 22 and and 23 anti 24 Vane Van cut 25 Van ank 26 Vccs 27 set set, 28, twit, twit, 29, and then 30 tot, tot, 31, Tett 32 T D. T D. 33, Toit to 34 Tutt 35 to sunk, to sunk. 36 toss toss, 37, to set, to set, 38, to tweet, turn tweet, 39, ten, tonu. Now let's come 40-59. As you can see, same
pattern 41 and 51, we have the lay end that is
added just for the layers. 40 41. Car 42 Caren Caron 43 Careni Carenoi 44 Carona Carona 45, Caren sank Caren sank 46 Carns Carnis 47, Caron set, Caron
set, 48, Caronuit, Caron tuit 49, Caron N, Caron N, and then
we move on to 50. 50 is count St. Count, 51, sin Cote 52 San Condo Sonu 53 Sancti Santos 54, Sanon Sanon Cat 55, Sanconsank SinconSank 56, San Consist San Consist 57, San Conset San Conset 58, San Con tuit San Con twit, 59, San Con San Cont Nf. Now we're going to count 60-79. Same thing, we're keeping the
little end for 61 and 71. But there's a little difference. You've noticed when
we did 20, 30, 40, 50, you just add number one, two, three, four, up
to nine next to it. It's almost the same thing
here, apart from 70. When you arrive at 70,
you continue counting. It goes from, for example, 69, then you to ten, 60 11. I'm going to start with the 60 and we'll come back to the 70. So 60 is soisont soisant 61, Suite soit 62, Sisson Du Sison D. 63, sois sois to 64, Soiont Sisson cat 65, soison sank, Sisson sank, 66, soison Sisson sis. 67 soisson set, soisson set, 68, soissonTwt soisson twit, 69, soissinn soissinN
then we arrive at 60. At 60 means 60, ten. 60 plus ten equals 70, 70 Sisson, Sisson this. Then we follow the same pattern. 71 means literally 60 and 11, and you follow that
pattern until 79. 71 soit sois sante os. 72, Sisson do Sison does. 73, Suison soisonTres 74 soissintKears, Sisson Kears 75 soissanKs soisonKs 76 Soisons Suison says, and then we've got the
last three numbers. Remember when we learn 17, 18 and 19, they
meant 107, 108, 109. You can really either think
77 means literally 60, 17 or 60, ten, seven, 60 plus ten plus seven. 77, Suisme dist, suis diset 78, Sisi Sisson du, 79, sis dn, Sisson diseno
now let's count 80-99. As you can see, 80 is a
little bit different. There's a DN, which
is atroveighty is Catrova which means
24 times 20 equal 80. We need to follow that
structure all the way up to 99. The first and aqua
easy, 80 Catrova. 81 cat slight different. There's no end on this
one and on 91, remember. 82 Catvnvneighty three Cavani 84, Canaan 85, Cato vanc Catovnk 86, Cattvcs 87 Get
RovansetKtvan set, 88 tRvanvan 89 Kovanvtovanev, then we go to 90 and 90
literally means four, 20, ten, four times 20
plus ten, equal 90. Then we continue with 11, 12, 13 to go up each numbers. 90 Catron 91 Katsas which literally means 42011, four times 20 plus 11, equal 91. 92 van 93. Pre 94, Cat RovanKKtRvan Kears
95 Cat Rovan counts. Cat Rovan counts. 96 Cat Rovans Cat Rovan says, 97 atovandist Caovandset 98, CatvanuKRvan Diu, 99, Cat
RovannugKtRvan dis enough. I'll repeat all of those one
together because they'll be more complicated than
the rest of the numbers. Cat Rovan Cato cat RvanuRvan, CatovanctKt RvansancKt

3. Numbers 100+ & Decimals: Now let's have a look
at the hundreds. 100, 200 Dust 300 Troion 400 catus 500, Sanson 600, Cis 700, sets 800 is 900 Nef son. Just as a leonte So hundred does not have a pro mark when it's
followed by a number. For example, the sont So does
not take an S at the end. Now, let's have a look
at numbers over 1,000 1,000, 2000 Du Mil, 3,000 Toimil 4,000 Kamil,
5,000 samil 6,000, Cemal 7,000 set meal, 8,000 mil, 9,000 f mil. Also, mil is invariable, which means there's no S at
the end to mark the pro. Another leon note is 1000-9999, you can add a space to
mark the three digits. It is only compulsory
after 9,999. Now let's have a look
at numbers over 10,000. 10,000 Dil 100,000 Soil, 500,000, Soil 1 million
million 100 million. So million. 500 million million, 1 billion milla 100 billion, Sola, 500 billion Sanson media. Another note, So
100 gets a pro mark before millions
and mill billions. A little note about
the decimal in French. We use a comma instead of
a point like in English. For example, we say
this Virgil Kero set.
4. Ordinal Numbers: Now let's have a look at what we call the ordinal numbers. It's very simple in
French as they all more or less follow the same
pattern except for first. You have to know if
the noun after it is masculine or feminine
and also if it's plural. For the plural, you only have
to add an S. So for first, let's have a look at each one. First, when it's masculine
and singular is Premier. For example, Premier
Rupa, my first meal. First, when it's feminine
singular is Premiere, my premiere voto, my first car. First, when it's
masculine and Peru, Premier me premiere
exam my first exam. Then first, when it's
feminine and Perun premiere me premier
vacans my first holidays. For the rest of the numbers, you only have to add I E, and also for the pro, you
only have to add ans. There's no difference in gender. There's no masculine and femi. For second becomes dosim third, trois im, fourth cam. Cat, which means four
loses its E and you put Cam fifth skim, six, cesium, seventh, ctium eighth tim ninth Nuvum. Careful with this one,
the F at the end of nine Nuf becomes a VNvium
5. Days, Months & Years: Let's have a look at the days. Monday, Land Land Tuesday, Mardi Mardi. Wednesday, Merck. Thursday Friday and Saturday Sunday Sunday Di moch Dimanche. Landy, Mardi, Marc Rdi, Judy, Vondrdi, Samdi Dimoch. And the week in
French is lesson. Now let's have a
look at the month. January, Janvivi February,
February March, Mars, Mars, April Avril Avril May May May June July August, September September September
October October October, November November
November, December, this. Now let's have a look
at the years is. For example, 2020 or
2020 is D Mil V 2020. It's quite simple because it takes back all the number
that we've just seen. Now we can practice
with a couple of French national holidays. For instance, New Year's day, which we call J Dolan is
L Premier Jen for first, we use an ordinal number. But for all the other
numbers, it's just a number. It's not an ordinal number. First is Premier Janvier. For Labor Day, la fe
du trav it's Premier. Victory in Europe,
Armistice Dime Mille St. Caren i pasty day, fete National Kators Ju
World War I, Armistice Day, Armistice s Novem
Man of Sand Suit, Luns Novem, Mill of Sandi Suit, and Christmas Noel Lovin Sands.
6. Tell the Time: Now let's learn
to tell the time. The question you need
to use is KR til. What time is it? Keller re til. To answer, you need
to say Ile, it is. Let's have a look
at some vocabulary. If you want to say noon,
it's midi, midnight, minu, a quarter is
aca you can say 8:15, iter aca 8:30, tere DomiO quarter 28. Vita Wonka. Now let's have a look
at some examples. For instance, 12:30 P.M. Elaine, Midi and me, which literally mean
noon and a half. Or you can also say, El Dustnt, which means 12 hours 30. 3:25 A.M. PM, 3 hours 253 Amos 3 hours in the morning. Last example, 4:45 A.M.
OPM it doesn't matter. Which means 4 hours 45. You can also say SanceilkaFive hours minus
the quarter literally. Now if you look at
24 hours format, you can also say this. 2:30 P.M. Kastnt 14 hours 30. 325 Cancer vans, 15
hours 25, 3:00 P.M. 15 hours, and then 4:45 P.M. Car Caren 16 hours 45.
7. Conclusion: Well, the, now it's
your time to practice. You have three exercises to
do for the number parts, one exercise for the dates part, and a last exercise
for turning the time. You can find those
exercises below. Don't forget to download
the PDF document. We are now at the
end of this course. What did we learn today? You are now able to
count in French, to tell today's date and to
ask or to tell the time. Thank you again for
watching this course. Don't forget to do the exercises
that are related to it. If you have any question,
feel free to leave a comment. Stay. So.
