Cardinal numbers in Estonian are used for counting and are quite straightforward. Here are the basic numbers from one to ten:

  • 1: üks
  • 2: kaks
  • 3: kolm
  • 4: neli
  • 5: viis
  • 6: kuus
  • 7: seitse
  • 8: kaheksa
  • 9: üheksa
  • 10: kümme

For numbers 11 through 19, Estonian uses a combination of the base number and the suffix "-teist":

  • 11: üksteist
  • 12: kaksteist
  • 13: kolmteist
  • 14: neliteist
  • 15: viisteist
  • 16: kuusteist
  • 17: seitseteist
  • 18: kaheksateist
  • 19: üheksateist

Tens are formed by adding the suffix "-kümmend" to the base number:

  • 20: kakskümmend
  • 30: kolmkümmend
  • 40: nelikümmend
  • 50: viiskümmend
  • 60: kuuskümmend
  • 70: seitsekümmend
  • 80: kaheksakümmend
  • 90: üheksakümmend

Hundreds, thousands, and beyond follow a similar pattern:

  • 100: sada
  • 200: kakssada
  • 1,000: tuhat
  • 2,000: kaks tuhat

Compound Numbers

For compound numbers, Estonian combines the tens and units with a space:

  • 21: kakskümmend üks
  • 35: kolmkümmend viis
  • 47: nelikümmend seitse

Special Cases

Estonian also has specific forms for numbers when used in different grammatical cases, which can affect the ending of the numeral. For example, the partitive case (used to indicate partial objects or quantities) often changes the ending of the numeral:

  • 1 (partitive): ühte
  • 2 (partitive): kahte
