Learning Russian Numbers Made Easy

Learning the Russian language requires a good understanding of the numbers. If you're planning to visit Russia or just want to expand your language skills, mastering Russian numbers is a must.

Let's start with the basics, numbers 1-10. Repeat after me:

один ("a-deen")

два ("dva")

три ("tree")

четыре ("chye-tir-ye")

пять ("pyat")

шесть ("shest")

семь ("syem")

восемь ("vo-syem")

девять ("dyev-yat")

десять ("dyes-yat")

Good job! Now, let's move on to numbers 11-19:

одиннадцать

двенадцать

тринадцать

четырнадцать

пятнадцать

шестнадцать

семнадцать

восемнадцать

девятнадцать

And finally, the compound numbers:

двадцать ("dva-dtsat")

тридцать ("tree-dtsat")

сорок ("so-ruk")

пятьдесят ("pyat-des-yat")

шестьдесят ("shest-des-yat")

семьдесят ("syem-des-yat")

восемьдесят ("vo-syem-des-yat")

девяносто ("dyev-ya-nos-to")

сто ("sto")

двести ("dva-sti")

триста ("tree-sta")

четыреста ("chye-tyr-es-ta")

пятьсот ("pyat-sot")

шестьсот ("shest-sot")

семьсот ("syem-sot")

восемьсот ("vo-syem-sot")

девятьсот ("dyev-yat-sot")

тысяча ("tysyacha")

миллион ("meel-yon")

миллиард ("meel-lee-ard")

Practice counting from 1 to 10, then backwards from 10 to 1. Challenge yourself by counting in increments of 10, and eventually practice forming bigger numbers. With enough practice, you'll soon be able to understand Russian numbers with ease!

Here's a list of great VK public pages in Russian that I adore: pt 1

If you're learning the language, I think these might help you get more familiar with not only reading and spelling, but with how Russians actually communicate. And these pages are pretty cool too, so you can just check them out even if learning the language isn't the main goal.

1. покажи нам кусочек своей жизни/show us a piece of your life

A rather cool page where people share random pictures from their phones with a bit of info about themselves. Every post has its own aesthetic but more importantly, these posts feel very real and authentic. Here's what some of these posts look like.

"I'm majoring in geo in Moscow, sing in choir, and right now I'm writing my thesis a bit worried about my future. But I'll be fine. Kindness to all"

"the life of a physics teacher 💫"

2. пушистые морды/fluffy faces

Another page that accepts post suggestions. Here you can share your adorable pet (it's mostly cats).

"his name is Oleg"

3. мам ну не читай/mom don't read it

Did you have a diary when you were a kid? I cringe every time I read my old diaries. But this page collects all the weird diary entries and posts them. Not sure where they take them from, but they're all pretty hilarious.

"the door to the future"

"the page of positivity"

I'll be back with a part two!

This Twitter thread really spoke to me. I wanted to share it with anyone who hasn’t seen it.
