Points to Remember

  • When adding -uno or -otto onto 21, 31, 41... you have to take away the final a.
examples
trenta + uno = trentuno
trenta + otto = trentotto
  • When adding tre onto 21, 31, 41... you have to shift the stress onto the final syllable.
example
trenta + tre = trentatré
  • These two rules also apply when the 21, 31, 41... are themselves attached to 100, 200, 300...
examples
duecentoventi + uno = duecentoventuno
duecentoventi + tre = duecentoventitré
