Chinese characters have Simplified and Traditional forms.
At our school, we focus on Simplified characters.
The main written language used in Mainland China is Simplified Chinese. However, when filling out documents at a bank, Traditional Chinese is used uniformly. For example, the character “一” in Simplified Chinese is written as “壹” in Traditional Chinese.In China, when going to a bank to make a transfer, you must write the amount using traditional Chinese numerals with more strokes.
Why Practice?
Chinese numbers need practice to remember.
Learn numbers 1–10 and you can quickly master all numbers’ pronunciation.
Learning Goals:
Recognize and write numbers 1–10.
Read each number aloud.
Use pinyin to guide pronunciation.
Tips for Success:
Practice a few numbers each day.
Repeat writing and speaking.
Make learning fun with games or flashcards.
Once you are familiar with the Chinese numbers from 1 to 10, you can learn to say numbers from 1 to 100 in about 10 minutes. This is because Chinese numbers follow a logical and regular pattern:
1 一 yī
2 二 èr
3 三 sān
4 四 sì
5 五 wǔ
6 六 liù
7 七 qī
8 八 bā
9 九 jiǔ
10 十 shí
20 二十 èr shí
30 三十 sān shí
40 四十 sì shí
50 五十 wǔ shí
60 六十 liù shí
70 七十 qī shí
80 八十 bā shí
90 九十 jiǔ shí
100 一百 yì bǎi
11–19 are just “ten + number” (e.g., 11 = ten-one, 12 = ten-two).
Multiples of ten are “number + ten” (e.g., 20 = two-ten, 30 = three-ten).
Other numbers combine these two rules (e.g., 23 = two-ten-three).
Once you understand 1–10, you can easily form all numbers up to 100.
After learning numbers, children can start learning the days of the week in advance.
星期一 = xīng qī yī = Monday
星期二 = xīng qī èr = Tuesday
星期三 = xīng qī sān = Wednesday
星期四 = xīng qī sì = Thursday
星期五 = xīng qī wǔ = Friday
星期六 = xīng qī liù = Saturday
星期天 = xīng qī tiān = Sunday
