Counting to Three
Let's start with the first three numbers: jedan (one), dva (two), and tri (three).
| One, two, three. | Jedan, dva, tri. |
The word jedan behaves like an adjective, changing to agree with the noun it describes. When modifying a masculine inanimate noun (like a restaurant or umbrella) as a direct object, it keeps its dictionary form.
| I see one restaurant. | Vidim jedan restoran. |
| You have one umbrella, and he has two. | Ti imaš jedan kišobran, a on ima dva. |
Four and Five
Next are četiri (four) and pet (five).
You can form simple math equations using i for "and" (plus) and su for "are" (equals).
| Two and two are four. | Dva i dva su četiri. |
| I have four, and you have five. | Imam četiri, a ti imaš pet. |
Six to Ten
Let's complete the sequence up to ten: šest (six), sedam (seven), osam (eight), devet (nine), and deset (ten).
| Seven, eight, nine, ten. | Sedam, osam, devet, deset. |
| Are three and three six? | Jesu li tri i tri šest? |
| Four and three are seven. | Četiri i tri su sedam. |
| Five and five are ten. | Pet i pet su deset. |
