Twenty in Bosnian

dvadeset
numberTaught in: Numbers & Time

dvadeset is the Bosnian word for twenty.

From the lesson: Numbers 11-100

Age is expressed with 'to have': 'imam trideset godina', I HAVE thirty years. Which, honestly, is how age feels. Composition rule: the teens 11..19 are just the ones with '-naest' bolted on (jedan->jedanaest, tri->trinaest). And past twenty you simply say the tens, then 'i', then the ones: 23 = dvadeset i tri (20 + 3), 47 = Ĩetrdeset i sedam. Learn the tens once and every number in between builds itself.
