Class 5: Using Numbers

In English we use two types of numbers: cardinal numbers and ordinal numbers.

1. Cardinal Numbers Cardinal numbers are used with objects that can be counted to describe quantity, for example buildings, cars, or people. Cardinal numbers are used with plural nouns, so you normally need to use an “s” at the end of the noun.

Cardinal Cardinal 1 one 11 eleven 2 two 12 twelve 3 three 13 thirteen 4 four 14 fourteen 5 five 15 fifteen 6 six 16 sixteen 7 seven 17 seventeen 8 eight 18 eighteen 9 nine 19 nineteen 10 ten 20 twenty 30 thirty 40 forty

To create numbers such as 28, 32, or 45, you combine the two cardinal numbers:

Twenty-eight Thirty-two Forty-five Examples:

There are four men.

There are fourteen cars.

There are twenty-five people.

There are forty-nine trucks.

Educación Continua

Guatemalan Police Academy: English Teacher textbook

2. Ordinal Numbers Ordinal Numbers are used with objects in a sequence, for example streets or avenues, floors in a building, and days of the month. Ordinal numbers are used to identify singular objects, so you do NOT need to use an “s” at the end of the noun. Cardinal Ordinal Cardinal Ordinal 1 one first 11 eleven eleventh 2 two second 12 twelve twelfth 3 three third 13 thirteen thirteenth 4 four fourth 14 fourteen fourteenth 5 five fifth 15 fifteen fifteenth 6 six sixth 16 sixteen sixteenth 7 seven seventh 17 seventeen seventeenth 8 eight eighth 18 eighteen eighteenth 9 nine ninth 19 nineteen nineteenth 10 ten tenth 20 twenty twentieth 30 thirty thirtieth 40 forty fortieth To create ordinal numbers such as 28th, 32nd, or 45th you use the cardinal number for the first number and the ordinal number for the second number.

Twenty-eighth Thirty-second Forty-fifth Examples:

Go to the third floor.

He is the seventh man.

It is January twenty-second.

I live on Fifteenth Avenue.

Knife “He had a knife.” “He stabbed me.” b) Sexual Assault:

Typical Statements: “Someone attacked me.”

“A man raped me.”

“I’ve been raped.”

IMPORTANT!

When a person has been physically or sexually assaulted, it is very common for that person to be in a

state of shock. As a police officer, you need to understand three things:

1. The person may be acting hysterically: As a police officer you need to calm the victim of an assault while still collecting the information you need to assist him or her. In English, you can start by introducing yourself, then using one of the following phrases.

My name is Officer ______________. I am going to help you.

My name is Officer _______________. Please remain calm.

2. You need to establish if the victim is injured: When you arrive at the scene of an assault or

when you are approached by a person who has been attacked, you need to know if the person

requires immediate medical attention. You can ask:

Are you injured?

If the person answers “Yes”, call for medical assistance.

3. The person may be unable to speak clearly: If you are unable to understand what a person is saying, it is important that you ask that person to repeat his or her answer and speak slowly and clearly. When we are in a state of shock, we speak more quickly and less clearly. Be sure to reassure the person that you are going to help them! You can say:

I am going to help you, BUT please repeat your answer.

I am going to help you, BUT please speak slowly.
