Usage notes
[edit]
  • Catalan cardinal numbers may be used as masculine or feminine adjectives, exceptun/una(1),dos/dues(2),cents/centes(100s) and its compounds. When used as nouns, Catalan cardinal numbers are treated as masculine singular nouns in most contexts, but in expressions involving time such asla una i trenta (1:30) orles dues (two o'clock), they are feminine because the feminine nounhora has been elided.
