 # adjective_ordinal_number Article
-Biblical Hebrew contains two sets of numbers: [cardinal](https://git.door43.org/Door43/en-uhg/src/master/content/adjective_cardinal_number/02.md) and ordinal. Ordinal numbers describe a numeric rank/order or portion of a whole. "First" through "tenth" have unique ordinal forms, but the cardinal forms are used from "eleventh" and higher.  Ordinal numbers function as attributive adjectives, but they may not always have the same grammatical form (gender, number, definiteness) as the noun they describe.
