Ordinal numbers in German
Ordinal numbers are not the numerals to count (eins, zwei drei). In most cases they are written (erste, zweite, dritte/first, second, third) and used:
- to express the relative position of a person, thing etc. compared to others or
- to express a certain order.

How to form the ordinal numbers
The ordinal numbers are created in most cases by adding a suffix to a cardinal number. To use a cardinal number, you have to add
- a -te to numbers from 1 to 19
- and -ste to numbers above 19.
| Cardinal number | Pronouncing | Ordinal number with -te |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | eins | erste |
| 2 | zwei | zweite |
| 3 | drei | dritte |
| 4 | vier | vierte |
| 5 | fünf | fünfte |
| 6 | sechs | sechste |
| 7 | sieben | siebte |
| 8 | acht | achte |
| 9 | neun | neunte |
| 10 | zehn | zehnte |
| 19 | neunzehn | neunzehnte |
Watch out for some exception of this rule! At erste and dritte there is a changed root, at siebte the- en is dropped, and at achte which only adds an -e.
| Cardinal number | Pronouncing | Ordinal number with -ste |
|---|---|---|
| 20 | zwanzig | zwanzigste |
| 21 | einundzwanzig | einundzwanzigste |
| 22 | zweiundzwanzig | zweiundzwanzigste |
| 30 | dreißig | dreißigste |
| 31 | einunddreißig | einunddreißigste |
| 40 | vierzig | vierzigste |
| 100 | hundert | hundertste |
By writing a text, the ordinal numbers are usually written out until 12. By using numbers from 13 on, just use the cardinal form and add a point (13., 14.).
Declension of ordinal numbers and their use as adjectives
In most cases, ordinal numbers are considered as adjectives. Therefore the numbers need to be declined in the same way as adjectives. Depending on the type of article, there are different types of declension:
- Declension for ordinal numbers with definite article
- with indefinite article
- without preceding article
| With definite article | Masculine | Feminine | Neuter |
|---|---|---|---|
| Nominative | der zweite Hund | die zweite Puppe | das zweite Kind |
| Accusative | den zweiten Hund | die zweite Puppe | das zweite Kind |
| Dative | dem zweiten Hund | der zweiten Puppe | dem zweiten Kind |
| Genitive | des zweiten Hundes | der zweiten Puppe | des zweiten Kindes |
| With indefinite article | Masculine | Feminine | Neuter |
|---|---|---|---|
| Nominative | ein zweiter Hund | eine zweite Puppe | ein zweites Kind |
| Accusative | einen zweiten Hund | eine zweite Puppe | ein zweites Kind |
| Dative | einem zweiten Hund | einer zweiten Puppe | einem zweiten Kind |
| Genitive | eines zweiten Hundes | einer zweiten Puppe | eines zweiten Kindes |
| Without article | Masculine | Feminine | Neuter |
|---|---|---|---|
| Nominative | zweiter Hund | zweite Puppe | zweites Kind |
| Accusative | zweiten Hund | zweite Puppe | zweites Kind |
| Dative | zweitem Hund | zweiter Puppe | zweitem Kind |
| Genitive | zweiten Hundes | zweiter Puppe | zweiten Kindes |
Usage of ordinal numbers as adjectives
As ordinal numbers as adjectives usually refer to a noun, they need to be declined. They stand in front of the noun they refer to.
- Wir wohnen im fünfzehnten Stock. (We live on the 15th floor.)
- Englisch ist seine zweite Fremdsprache. (English is his 2nd foreign language.)
- Das ist mein erster Besuch in Berlin. (This is my first visit in Berlin.)
- Der Vater war bei der Geburt seines ersten Kindes dabei. (The father was present at the birth of his first child.)
Keep in mind, that the numbers are used as adjectives and therefore always need to take adjective endings!
Special cases to use ordinal numbers
There are some forms of expressions, where it is necessary to know how to use ordinals in German. For instance:
- Using dates
- Ordinal numbers without article
- Nominal numbers
1) By using ordinal numbers to talk about the dates in German the ordinal number stands before the month or the year.
- Heute ist der elfte September. (Today it's the 11th of September.)
- Mein Bruder hat am dreizehnten Mai Geburtstag. (My brother has its birthday on the 13th of May.)
- Das Konzert findet am siebzehnten Februar statt. (The concert will take place on the 17th of February.)
2) Ordinal numbers without article are not just used as the ordinal numbers, but with synonyms.
- Das ist Deutschlands größtes Autobahnkreuz. (This is Germanys biggest motorway interchange.)
- China ist unser wichtigster Handelspartner. (China is our most important trading partner.)
- Bester Film aller Zeiten. (Best movie of all ages.)
In all examples the bold type words mean that the noun is ranked number one in any ranking. So the ordinal number is used in a different style.
3) Ordinal numbers can also be used as nouns.
- Er möchte immer Erster sein. (He always wants to be the first one.)
- Kroatien ist bei der Fußballweltmeisterschaft Zweiter geworden. (Croatia finished second at the soccer world cup.)
- Er traf als Dritter ins Ziel. (He hit the bull's eye third.)
Cardinal numbers in German
In German, as well as in English, there are both cardinal and ordinal numbers. The cardinal numbers are the numerals used to count.
Cardinal numbers from 1 to 100
| Cardinal numbers in German | Spelling and pronouncing |
|---|---|
| 1 | eins |
| 2 | zwei |
| 3 | drei |
| 4 | vier |
| 5 | fünf |
| 6 | sechs |
| 7 | sieben |
| 8 | acht |
| 9 | neun |
| 10 | zehn |
| 11 | elf |
| 12 | zwölf |
| 13 | dreizehn |
| 14 | vierzehn |
| 15 | fünfzehn |
| 16 | sechszehn |
| 17 | siebzehn |
| 18 | achtzehn |
| 19 | neunzehn |
| 20 | zwanzig |
| 21 | einundzwanzig |
| 22 | zweiundzwanzig |
| 23 | dreiundzwanzig |
| 30 | dreißig |
| 31 | einunddreißig |
| 40 | vierzig |
| 50 | fünfzig |
| 60 | sechzig |
| 70 | siebzig |
| 80 | achzig |
| 90 | neunzig |
| 100 | (ein)hundert |
Using numbers higher than 20, in German the numbers are expressed in reverse (e.g. 21 = einundzwanzig = one-and-twenty).
Cardinal numbers can also be used in combination with adjectives.
- Zehn leckere Brötchen. (Ten tasty buns.)
- Er hat zwei coole Autos und ein Motorrad. (He has two cool cars and one motorcycle.)
If you want to learn more about this, have a look at the chapter about counting in German.

Exercise on ordinal numbers as adjectives in German
Fill in the missing words. Use the cardinal number (1, 2, 3 etc.) that is in brackets and transform it into the ordinal form (erste, zweite, dritte etc.).
Recap: Remember, that ordinal numbers from
- 1 to 19 are formed by adding -te and
- numbers from 20 and above are formed by adding -ste.
Also keep in mind that the ordinal number functions as an adjective when it stands before a noun and therefore needs to be declined!
Example: Bald ist ihr fünfunddreißigster (35) Hochzeitstag. (It will be their 35th wedding anniversary soon.)
Wir wohnen im (15) Stock dieses Hotels. (We live on the 15th floor of this hotel.)
Petra hat am (3) September Geburtstag. (Petra has her birthday on the 3rd of september.)
Mein Pferd hat bei dem Rennen den (4) Platz belegt. (My horse finished the race on the fourth place.)
Sie beginnt bald ihr (6) Semester an der Uni. (She starts her sixth semester on the university soon.)
Ein (2) Kind können wir uns nicht leisten. (We can not afford a second child.)
Morgen ist der (23) September. (Tomorrow, it's the 23th of september.)
Das ist mein (1) Urlaub in England. (This is my first holiday in England.)
Heute ist der (121) Tag in diesem Jahr. (Today is the 121st day of this year.)
Deutsch ist seine Muttersprache, aber Französisch ist seine (2) Fremdsprache. (German is his native language, but French is his second foreign language.)
Ich lese das Buch jetzt zum (5) Mal. (I'm reading the book for the fifth time now.)
Exercise on the spelling of ordinal numbers in German
Transform this cardinal numbers into their ordinal form and write it into the boxes.
Recap: You can use the ordinal form by adding -te to numbers from 1 to 19 and adding -ste to numbers from 20 and above. Watch out for the irregular cases!
Also keep in mind that numbers higher than 12 are formed in reverse (e.g. 13 = dreizehn).
Example: cardinal: 13 = ordinal: dreizehnte (always write the feminin form)
1) 6. =
2) 44. =
3) 96. =
4) 1. =
5) 7. =
6) 102. =
7) 33. =

I'm learning German with Belinda (currently B1) and I am trying to do a final push, so i can finally start speaking. Classes are very well prepared and structured. The book/ books used in the class have exercises that actually make your brain work and are not always easy to do ( this is for people who had experience with easy and boring grammar materials). We play dialogues, we have conversations through which the teacher understands where I am with my level and is trying to make adjustments to the program. And there's a lot of homework (when you ask for it) !!! : )

Hello =)
My name is Karolin and since the beginning of 2017, while I was still living in Chile, I've been giving online classes. I really enjoy my work and it gives me the privilage to get to know people from all around the world, which is amazing.
Both in English and in German, I teach classes for beginners and advanced students. I speak Spanish fluently, but as I lived in Chile for around 5 years, both my pronounciation and my choice of words are influenced by that. I learned and teach the european Spanish but only for beginners (A1/A2). But if you don't mind the chilenean influence, I do teach to a higher level as well.
If you'd like to get to know me and my teaching methods, just contact me and we will do a free trial lesson (please do NOT by a lesson before the trial lesson, not every teacher is good for every student).
See you soon!
R. D.
I am so happy to be taking German lessons with Karolin. She is an amazing teacher, I honestly cannot believe how much I have improved in the 6 months I have been taking lessons with her. She made me feel confortable from the very beginning, she is always on time and somehow makes me look forward to every lesson. Thanks for everything Karo!

I can not recommend enough Katja. She makes the lessons extremely enjoyable. Her materials are diverse and well thought through.
Dear Marcia, thank you!
I am a tutor in French as a foreign language. I specialize in conversation and communication from B1 level upwards, but I also have A2 students with whom I follow a more traditional method.
With me, you can express yourself freely and make mistakes without fear, I'll take note of them without interrupting. Essential is that the conversation flows and that we understand each other.
I am Belgian and my mother tongue is French. I have always loved literature, culture, and languages. I studied in Flanders for 10 years, lived in France and Switzerland for 4 years, and I currently live in Valencia, Spain.
I followed the DAEFLE training (teaching French as a foreign language) in 2017.
My practice: - online conversation / support for self-taught students
- coaching / correction of speeches, lectures and documents
Method: - interests and culture
- videos, images, music, reports, poems
- asking questions and seeking answers online (with guidance)
- I encourage listening to podcasts and the use of applications such as Duolingo outside of class for vocabulary and repetition
---------------------
Basic rate 18€/hour
Children under 16: 20€/hour
Cancellation :
- If you cancel / postpone more than 24 hours before the lesson, it will not be charged.
- In case of cancellation / postponing less than 24 hours before the lesson, it will be charged at half price.

Lessons with Elodie are less like traditional teacher-student lessons, and more like having a conversation with your French-speaking friend. Having no practical necessity to improve my French now, but wishing to do so nevertheless (and not to forget what I already knew), this is exactly the format I was looking for. Elodie usually defines a topic for the lesson (according to my preferences) and sends some materials in advance to prepare (e.g. a YouTube video to watch), which will be discussed then. She corrects persistent mistakes and explains new words but makes sure it does not interrupt the flow of conversation. It is a good language practice, but also a great way to learn new things about francophone culture (and not only!), so I definitely recommend!
Elodie O.
I am an enthusiastic and devoted Native English speaker with excellent communication skills and I would love to help you improve your conversational English
I have a Bachelors degree in Information Design and Marketing. I am also a certified TEFL teacher. I have 15 years experience teaching students at University level and more recently I started teaching English on-line to all age groups. As part of my community service, I do volunteer English teaching to underprivileged students in Myanmar which I find hugely rewarding.
My classes focus on conversational English, in other words - we talk and read a lot, we make mistakes and correct them, we focus on pronunciation and correct sentence construction and have fun while learning and practising your English. My number one priority is always to focus on addressing your specific needs and problem areas.
Learning to speak a new language is more than just acquiring new words and the sentences, it is also about getting the confidence to use it. This confidence will come from using the language in a friendly, safe and non-judgemental environment - and that is what I offer you.
I believe I am very friendly, easy to get along with, and extremely patient.
Teaching English to me is a passion and not a job. I am super excited to share this learning journey with you.

Hello German learner! I am a dedicated teacher for DaF (German as a foreign language) studying and working in Germany. I have already gained teaching experience with different age groups and nationalities while teaching German in various language schools.
Currently, I'm doing my second studies in German, English, and Teaching at the University of Bonn. (I already got my Master's Degree in German and Literature). Besides, I teach in a local language school as well as tutor students online on Colanguage.
In my free time, I learn French and Dutch and hope to become a true polyglot one day :)
So as you can see, I'm all into languages and love my profession as a teacher!
I can help you learn general German, develop your communicational skills as well as prepare you for language tests (Goethe Zertifikat, Telc, etc).
Just book a trial lesson with me and we'll find out which course is right for you.
See you soon

Hello,
my name is Veronika and I am a student in Florence at the academy of fine arts. I have been in Italy for three years and I really like the Italian language. In school i learned english and during journeys i used to speak a lot of english so i'm also able to teach in english.
I am from Germany so I am a German native speaker. I have already taught German to some of my friends and would love to teach my language to more people as well. At the beginning I would like to do grammar lessons and the most used words to deepen the basic knowledge of the language. Then I will continue to have conversations in German to increase vocabulary and to give confidence in dialogue and in any case in speaking the language in real scenarios. The most important thing by learning a new language is to learn it through hearing and speaking. Being difficult at first to formulate sentences will then become easier and easier and thus you arrive at a fluent and confident way to speak the new language.
For myself I learned Italian three years ago with this method so I also know what it is like to learn a language and I can help you with my teaching to learn German that way.
I can not wait to start!
greetings Veronika
B. L.
My experience with Veronika as a teacher was and still is really good. In order to reach my goals, she has setup a structured schedule and has provided good learning material. Due to my work, I had to reschedule some of my lessons and she always showed understanding in this regards. She is very friendly and easy to talk to. I can only recommend her!

Hallo :) My name is Mihaela and I was born in Switzerland. I have a Bachleor and Master degree as German teacher and more then 5 years experience.
I love languages, because of that I speak also Croatian and English. :)
- ABOUT THE CLASS -
I offer German language lessons for A1, A2, B1, B2 level and they include everything you need: grammar, speaking, writing, pronunciation and vocabulary.
This is ideal for students who want actively participate and speak more, learn new words and exercise the grammar. Or we can learn whatever you need, because I will always adapt to your needs. :)
I will support you during your learning experience and adapt to your learning tempo.
All learning materials and exercises are included and will be provided during the lesson.
The learning material is from various books (Schritte International, Menschen, Sicher im Alltag und Beruf, Begegnungen,...).

Mihaela has helped me along with improving my german language skills over the past nine months with great success. She has a clear structured approach but constantly adapts the lessons to your needs and interests to keep you motivated. During the lessons, she consistently adds vocabulary to the discussion, meaning that you are always learning more without the feeling of being overwhelmed with information. She is also very flexible with bookings. I can positively recommend learning german with Mihaela.
