A 注意fifth,eighth,ninth和twelfth等词的不规则拼写法。B 序数词用数字表示时,需在数字后面加上书写形式的最后两个字母(表示日期时除外):
first=1st
second=2nd
third=3rd
fourth=4th
twenty-first=21st
forty-second=42nd
sixty-third=63rd
eightieth=80th
B 在复合序数词中,and的用法与在基数词中的用法相同:
101st=the hundred and first
序数词之前通常要用定冠词the:
the sixtieth day第60天
the fortieth visitor第40位来访者
国王等的多少世,要用罗马数字来表示:
Charles Ⅴ查理五世
James Ⅲ詹姆斯三世
Elizabeth Ⅱ伊丽莎白二世
但在口语中用序数词时,需在前面加上定冠词the,读做:
Charles the Fifth
James the Third
Elizabeth the Second
