Notes •

"First" is the only ordinal number that doesn't follow the above rule: premier (masculine) and première (feminine)



21st, 31st, etc. follow the rule: vingt et unième, trente et unième



Note the spelling changes in cinquième and neuvième



Beginning with "fifth," French ordinal numbers and fractions are the same word: fifth = cinquième, a fifth = un cinquième



Ordinal numbers are not used to talk about dates in French, except for premier
