The feminine form, used for counting and with feminine nouns. The neuter "eno" is used when ordering.
Feminine/neuter dual and plural. Slovenian famously preserves the dual grammatical number for pairs.
Same for all genders. Pronounced like English "tree" without the final vowel sound.
The "š" sounds like "sh." Stress is on the first syllable in most Slovenian numbers.
Short and crisp. Slovenian numbers above four do not change for gender.
A key building block. Slovenian teens are formed as "number plus ten" (e.g., "enajst" for eleven).
