Rangtelwoorden (ordinals)

 Wat zijn rangtelwoorden?

Rangtelwoorden (ordinal numbers) gebruik je om een volgorde aan te geven.

Een rangtelwoord maak je (bijna !) altijd door er   

-th achter te zetten.

Voorbeeld:

Four  -  Fourth 

Six  -   Sixth

 Seven  -  Seventh 

sixteen - sixteenth

Uitzonderingen:

First - Second - Third (en twenty-first, thirty-second, etc.).

five - fifth 

eight - eighth

nine - ninth

twelve - twelfth

twenty - twentieth
(thirty - thirtieth, forty -  fortieth enz..)

Rangtelnummers (ordinal numbers)

Last two letters of the words= make up the ordinal number 

first - last two letters are 'st' so put after 1 = 1st

second - last two letters are 'nd' put after 2 = 2nd

third - last two letters are 'rd' so put after 3 = 3rd

fourth - last two letters are 'th' so put after 4 = 4th
