Numerals in English are mainly divided into cardinal numbers and ordinal numbers. The so-called cardinal number is mathematically understood as a number of equal size. Primitive words in English are used to describe the quantity of things.

In 1-20, except eleven, twelve, thirteen, five, eight, fourteen, six-ten, seven-ten and nine-ten are all composed of their single-digit forms followed by the suffix-ten.

Usage of cardinal words

Original words can be used as subject, object, attribute, predicative and appositive in sentences, which mainly indicate the number of things or people.
