How to Write German Numbers
How to Write German Numbers
If the situation ever calls for it, you might have to count and spell numbers in German. This is not a necessary skill, but if you want to know German, you need to know how to count all numbers in German.
Steps

Learn the numbers: 0 - null - noll 1 - eins - eyns 2 - zwei - tsvy 3 - drei - dry 4 - vier - fear 5 - fünf - foo-nf 6 - sechs - zexs 7 - sieben - zeeb-ben 8 - acht - akt 9 - neun - noin 10 - zehn - tsehn 11 - elf - elf 12 - zwölf - ts-volf 13 - dreizehn - dry-zayne 14 - vierzehn - feer-zayne 15 - fünfzehn - foo-nf-zayne 16 - sechzehn - zex-zayne 17 - siebzehn - zeeb-zayne 18 - achtzehn - akt-zayne 19 - neunzehn - noin-zayne 20 - zwanzig - tsvan-zig 30 - dreiβig - dry-zig 40 - vierzig - feer-zig 50 - fünfzig - foo-nf-zig 60 - sechzig - zex-zig 70 - siebzig - zeeb-zig 80 - achtzig - akt-zig 90 - neunzig - noin-zig 100 - hundert - hoon-dert 200 - zweihundert - tsvy-hoon-dert and so forth.

Next, memorize the spelling and pronunciation.

After that, you need to know how to write the "in between numbers," such as: 21 - einundzwanzig - eyn-oond-tsvan-sig 22 - zweiundzwanzig - tsvy-oond-tsvan-sig 23 - dreiundzwanzig - dry-oond-tsvan-sig and so forth. Einundzwanzig directly translates into, "One and twenty". The idea is that you can do this with any of the "in between numbers" such as: 36 - sechsunddreiβig - zexs-oond-dry-zig 44 - vierundvierzig - feer-oond-feer-zig 59 - neunundfünfzig - noin-oond-foo-nf-zig and so forth.
