Mоre numbers! Beyоnd the numbers ūnus, duо, аnd trēs, аlmost аll of the numbers in Latin are indeclinable. It's worth being able to count at least to 10 or 20, but if you know a Romance language -- like Spanish or French -- these numbers tend to be a bit easier to recognize: Latin Spanish French 1 ūnus, -a, -um un(o) un 2 duo, duae, duo dos deux 3 trēs, tria tres trois 4 quattuor cuatro quatre 5 quīnque cinco cinq 6 sex seis six 7 septem siete sept 8 octō ocho huit 9 novem nueve neuf 10 decem diez dix The only other unusual number is the word for Latin, thousands, which is a third declension i-stem neuter plural, mīlia. This is actually treated as a noun, rather than an adjective, with the noun it is attributed to in the genitive e.g. decem mīlia Rōmānōrum in hāc cīvitāte habitant, "Ten thousand of Romans live in this state." With a single thousand, however, we used the indeclinable form mīlle: mīlle Rōmānī in cōpiīs Caesaris sunt, "There are a thousand Romans in Caesar's forces." The use of the genitive with mīlia is a phenomenon known as the genitive of the whole or the partitive genitive; to hear more, watch this video:
