The neuter counting form, used when just counting or pointing. Before feminine nouns like бира it becomes една, before masculine ones един.
Две for feminine and neuter nouns, два for masculine. If that is too much to hold onto, две plus fingers always works.
Same for all genders, mercifully. So are all numbers from three up.
Teens and tens build on this: двадесет (twenty), тридесет (thirty). In fast speech twenty sounds like "DVAY-set".
