### Thirty and Compound Numbers

Just like 20, the number 30 (**тридцать**) ends in the suffix **-дцать**. 

To form compound numbers (like 31 or 32), simply say the tens word followed by the units word. A noun that follows declines based entirely on the *last* word in the sequence. For example, compounds ending in 1 act just like 1, while those ending in 2, 3, or 4 trigger the genitive singular.

### Forty: The Exception

The number 40 does not follow the standard pattern for tens. It is a completely unique word: **сорок**.

### Fifty to Eighty

The numbers 50 through 80 are formed by combining the base digit with the suffix **-десят** (an old plural meaning "tens"). 

Watch out for the spelling: words like 50 (**пятьдесят**) and 60 (**шестьдесят**) keep the soft sign (**ь**) from their base digit right in the *middle* of the word, but do not have one at the end.

### Ninety and One Hundred

The set of tens finishes with 90 (**девяносто**) and 100 (**сто**).

When counting above 100, keep combining the numbers sequentially. Unlike in English, you never use a word for "and"—simply place the ones digit right after the hundreds or tens word (e.g., 101 is literally "hundred one").
