Tens (20-60) in Macedonian

This free Macedonian lesson teaches tens (20-60) as part of the Numbers course on OpaLingo. Learn to count in Macedonian from 0 to 1,000 — single digits, teens, tens, and hundreds. Use numbers for prices, time, quantities, and any situation where you need to count or calculate. You'll learn 5 Macedonian words, including дваесет (twenty), триесет (thirty), четириесет (forty), педесет (fifty), шеесет (sixty), each with native audio pronunciation, interactive flashcards, and a quiz to check your progress. The Macedonian language — South Slavic, written in Cyrillic, and spoken by around 1.5 million people centred on North Macedonia — is one of the easier languages to read aloud: its 31-letter alphabet is fully phonetic, so each letter keeps the same sound in every word.

How to practice tens (20-60) in Macedonian

Work through the lesson in three passes: first listen to the native audio and repeat each word aloud, then test yourself with the flashcards, and finish with the quiz to confirm what stuck. Because Macedonian is spelled exactly as it sounds, reading the Cyrillic out loud doubles as pronunciation practice. Short, repeated reviews over several days are far more effective than a single long session — and since every OpaLingo lesson is free and tracks your progress on any device, picking up where you left off takes seconds.
