I was just wondering about that.

My Russian numbers have um... gaps in them. I intend to learn them properly with this topic.  :nod:   I mastered numbers in German twenty five years ago at school in an afternoon...... but I still get some mixed up in Russian.

We'll go back and practice forming some numbers, but here is how to count by hundreds:

100 сто  [stoh]
 
200 двести  [dvyes-tee]
 
300 триста  [tree-stah]
 
400 четыреста  [chye-ti-ryeh-stah]
 
500 пятьсот  [pit-soht]
 
600 шестьсот  [shis-soht]
 
700 семьсот  [sim-soht]
 
800 восемьсот  [vah-sim-soht]
 
900 девятьсот  [dee-vit-soht]
   
1000 тысяча  [ti-si-chah]

Review:

We've added to the threads above with the ability to listen to the numbers spoken by native Russian speakers thanks to the nice folks at www.listen2russian.com

mendeleyev:
After a review comes a...TEST.  :)

This one is fun. To test how you're doing take this test. We suggest you set a timer for 6 minutes and see how you do. http://iteslj.org/v/r/numbers.html

mendeleyev:
I just stumbled across this video and love the way the Russian gal presents and groups the numbers. Her method is especially helpful as you can see the vowel stress changes as each number progresses.
