etc. Dos mil, etc. 2,000 Treinta 30 Cien[53] mil 100,000 Treinta y uno _or_ Treintiuno, 31 Cien mil y uno 100,001 etc. etc. Cien mil y diez 100,010 Un millon 1,000,000 [Footnote 50: When immediately preceding a noun, "uno" becomes "un"] [Footnote 51: "Ciento" becomes "cien." ("Cien" is found instead of "ciento," even standing alone.)] [Footnote 52: The duplicate forms are common to all the tens.] [Footnote 53: "Ciento" drops the _to_ also before "mil"; and of course before "millon" (a noun).] The conjunction "and" is always used between tens and units, as-- Veinte y una or veintiuna manzanas (21 apples). But it is generally omitted between hundreds and tens, as-- Doscientas treinta peras (230 pears). "Ciento" and "mil" are not preceded by "uno" except in 101,000, 201,000, etc., to avoid ambiguity, as-- Doscientos mil soldados (200,000 soldiers). Doscientas y un mil millas (201,000 miles). "One million inhabitants" is translated by Un millon _de_ habitantes. (_Note_.--The _de_ cannot be omitted.) In the case of more than one million the word "millon" must be plural--millones, as-- Cien millones de hombres (one hundred million men). As will have been observed, besides "uno," "doscientos," "trescientos," etc., change the _os_ into =as= for the feminine. _Future Tense, Indicative Mood._ +-----------------+----------------+---------------+----------------+ |Haber.[54] |Tener.[54] |Ser.[55] | Estar. | |Habre (I shall |Tendre (I shall |Sere (I shall | Estare (I shall| |have, etc., |have, etc., |be, etc.) | be, etc.) | |auxiliary, to |denoting |(See foot-note,| (See foot-note,| |be used with |possession) |Lesson IV.) | Lesson IV.) | |past participles)| | | | |Habras |Tendras |Seras | Estaras | |Habra |Tendra |Sera | Estara | |Habremos |Tendremos |Seremos | Estaremos | |Habreis |Tendreis |Sereis | Estareis | |Habran |Tendran |Seran | Estaran | +-----------------+----------------+---------------+----------------+ _Conditional Mood._ +--------
