You learned that numbers in Spanish from 21 to 29 start with veinti-, followed by the corresponding number. Now Julieta will mention an age in the thirties.
Treinta años - Thirty years old.
For numbers in the thirties, you say treinta y followed by the unit number. For example:
treinta y uno años – Thirty-one years old.
treinta y dos años – Thirty-two years old.
Listen to the audio and answer the question below.
How old is Julieta?
Treinta y seis años
Veinticinco años
This number does not match what Julieta said.
Veintinueve años
Julieta is older than this age.
Cuarenta años
This is not the age that Julieta mentions.
1
Tengo treinta y seis años means Julieta is 36 years old.
Remember that the word años has the letter ñ (eñe).
