# adjective_cardinal_number Article

|

Hebrew does not have special symbols for numbers (2, 4, 16) but always spells out the number (two, four, sixteen).
|
||||
Biblical Hebrew does not contain numerals ("1", "2", "3", etc.) but rather uses words to express numbers. There are two different kinds numbers: cardinal numbers and [ordinal numbers](https://git.door43.org/Door43/en-uhg/src/master/content/adjective_ordinal_number/02.md). Cardinal numbers are used either to express the name of a number itself or to express the quantity of a thing. Cardinal numbers function as [attributive adjectives](https://git.door43.org/Door43/en-uhg/src/master/content/adjective_attributive/02.md), but they may not always have the same grammatical form (gender, number, definiteness) as the noun they describe.
|
||||
|
||||
NOTE: Sometimes a cardinal form ("one", "two", "three", etc.) is used, but an ordinal meaning ("first", "second", "third", etc.) is clearly indicated from the context.
