Editing Hebrew numerals (section)

==Numbers==
The Hebrew language has names for common numbers that range from zero to one million. Letters of the [[Hebrew alphabet]] are used to represent numbers in a few traditional contexts, such as in calendars. In other situations, numerals from the [[Hindu–Arabic numeral system]] are used. [[Cardinal numbers|Cardinal]] and [[ordinal numbers]] must agree in gender with the noun they are describing. If there is no such noun (e.g., in telephone numbers), the feminine form is used. For ordinal numbers greater than ten, the cardinal is used. Multiples of ten above the value 20 have no gender (20, 30, 40, ... are genderless), unless the number has the digit 1 in the tens position (110, 210, 310, ...).

'''Note:''' Officially, numbers greater than a million were represented by the [[long scale]]. However, since January 21, 2013, the modified [[short scale]] (under which the long scale milliard is substituted for the strict short scale billion), which was already the colloquial standard, became official.<ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.hebrew-academy.org.il/2013/02/07/האקדמיה-ללשון-העברית-התכנסה-לישיבתה-ה-32/ | title=מונחי רפואת הלב, ענייני דקדוק ועוד אושרו באקדמיה (תשע"ג, 2013) | date=7 February 2013 }}</ref>

===Speaking and writing===
Cardinal and ordinal numbers must agree in gender (masculine or feminine; mixed groups are treated as masculine) with the noun they are describing. If there is no such noun (e.g. a telephone number or a house number in a street address), the feminine form is used. Ordinal numbers must also agree in number and definite status like other adjectives. The cardinal number precedes the noun (e.g., ''shlosha yeladim''), except for the number one which succeeds it (e.g., ''yeled echad''). The number two is special: ''shnayim'' (m.) and ''shtayim'' (f.) become ''shney'' (m.) and ''shtey'' (f.) when followed by the noun they count. For [[ordinal number]]s (numbers indicating position) greater than ten the cardinal is used.
