Hello
and
welcome
to
the
six
minute
vocabulary
with
me
,
Catherine
and
me
now
.
And
today
we're
talking
about
ordinal
numbers
.
Yeah
.
So
numbers
like
first
,
second
and
third
.
So
let's
start
by
listening
to
Laurence
.
He's
talking
about
his
18th
birthday
party
.
While
you
listen
,
try
to
answer
this
question
.
What
date
was
his
party
?
Here's
Laurence
.
For
my
18th
birthday
last
year
,
I
invited
about
60
friends
and
relatives
.
It
was
on
the
25th
of
May
and
it
was
the
first
time
that
I
ever
had
a
big
party
.
It
was
in
a
restaurant
on
the
third
floor
of
a
hotel
.
The
food
was
really
delicious
.
And
I
won
second
prize
in
the
dancing
competition
.
So
we
asked
you
what
date
was
Lawrence's
birthday
party
?
And
the
answer
is
the
25th
of
May
.
That's
right
.
Now
,
the
25th
is
an
ordinal
number
like
the
first
and
the
second
ordinal
numbers
.
Tell
us
the
position
of
something
in
a
group
,
the
dates
in
a
month
,
for
example
,
or
which
birthday
it
is
.
said
it
was
his
18th
birthday
.
Yes
,
he
did
.
Lucky
him
.
And
ordinal
numbers
are
different
to
cardinal
numbers
.
We
use
cardinal
numbers
like
one
,
two
,
three
,
four
,
counting
.
And
to
answer
the
question
,
how
many
and
to
make
a
cardinal
number
into
an
ordinal
number
at
the
letters
t
h
to
the
end
of
the
cardinal
number
18
18th
.
Sixty
sixtieth
,
and
that
works
for
all
the
cardinal
numbers
,
except
for
first
,
second
and
third
,
they're
irregular
,
but
for
all
the
others
,
it's
at
T8
.
So
that's
fourth
,
fifth
,
sixth
,
seventh
,
eighth
,
ninth
,
10th
.
So
that's
good
.
But
in
writing
,
we
do
have
a
couple
of
irregular
spellings
,
such
as
fifth
f
i
f
t
h
eighth
e
i
g
h
t
h
ninth
and
i
n
t
h
twelfth
t
w
e
l
ftth
and
four
nos
ending
in
y
like
sixty
.
Drop
the
Y
and
add
ihi
and
t
h
to
make
sixtieth
.
S
i
x
t
i
e
t
h
.
Now
let's
look
more
closely
at
Dade's
listen
for
the
date
in
this
clip
.
It
was
on
the
25th
of
May
,
and
it
was
the
first
time
that
I
ever
had
a
big
party
.
The
25th
of
May
,
when
we
say
the
day
before
the
month
,
we
always
use
the
words
the
and
of
the
25th
of
May
,
but
when
we
say
the
month
before
the
day
,
we
don't
use
the
word
of
it's
just
May
the
25th
.
We
often
use
the
word
there
with
ordinal
numbers
,
but
we
can
also
use
possessives
.
In
this
next
clip
,
Lawrence
uses
the
possessive
adjective
My
before
.
For
my
18th
birthday
last
year
,
I
invited
about
60
friends
and
relatives
.
Let's
have
another
clip
.
It
was
in
a
restaurant
on
the
third
floor
of
a
hotel
.
The
food
was
really
delicious
and
I
won
second
prize
in
the
dancing
competition
.
So
now
we
have
two
more
ways
of
using
ordinal
numbers
,
space
and
quality
.
Yes
,
we
do
.
And
the
third
floor
tells
us
about
the
position
of
the
floors
in
space
.
It's
the
same
as
when
we
give
directions
.
For
example
,
take
the
second
left
after
the
traffic
lights
and
second
prize
tells
us
about
the
quality
.
And
a
point
to
make
here
is
that
ordinal
numbers
can
be
used
as
adjectives
and
adverbs
without
the
like
in
the
phrase
he
won
second
prize
.
Second
is
an
adjective

And
now
it's
quiz
time
.
Number
one
,
which
of
these
is
correct
,
the
parties
on
a
30th
of
July
be
the
30th
of
July
,
see
the
30th
of
July
and
it's
the
30th
of
July
.
Great
.
Now
,
number
two
,
which
word
in
this
list
is
wrong
?
First
,
second
,
third
,
fourth
fifth
.
And
the
answers
,
it
should
be
for
is
it
should
number
three
,
which
of
these
is
correct
,
my
21st
birthday
be
my
the
21st
birthday
,
see
the
my
21st
birthday
.
And
the
answer
is
a
my
21st
birthday
.
Well
done
if
you
got
them
right
.
But
before
we
go
,
here's
a
vocabulary
tip
.
Try
saying
your
own
important
and
memorable
dates
in
English
,
for
example
,
birthdays
,
anniversaries
and
festivals
.
If
the
dates
are
important
,
you're
more
likely
to
remember
the
English
.
