Numbers 21-29

So, do you remember how to say 20?

That's right - vingt.

To make twenty one, you say 'twenty and one'.

vingt et un - twenty-one

Then you carry on without the et (and), but with a hyphen:

vingt-deux - twenty-two

vingt-trois - twenty-three

vingt-quatre - twenty-four

vingt-cinq - twenty-five

vingt-six - twenty-six

vingt-sept - twenty-seven

vingt-huit - twenty-eight

vingt-neuf - twenty-nine

Easy peasy, eh?
