The way people pronounce 1 to 20 in Spanish can vary depending on the region or country that the person speaking is from. Sixteen for example can be broken down as “ten + and + six” – “ diez + y + séis” – or all together it’s written as dieciséis. When counting from 16-19, we can begin to see this pattern emerge. Romance language number patterns will often structure larger numbers with the word for the multiple of ten first, the word for “and” second, and the digit from 1-9 last.
