"Un" is masculine, "unha" is feminine. Use "unha" before feminine nouns like "cervexa" (beer).
"Dous" for masculine nouns, "dúas" for feminine. Holds up for ordering two of most things.
The same in Galician, Spanish and Portuguese. Easy to remember.
Note the "catro" form rather than the Spanish "cuatro." Holding up fingers always helps.
Identical to Spanish. Useful for market haggling or splitting a bill five ways.
The z sounds like "th" in most of Galicia.
