Transcript
- Lucas: Luna, one hundred episodes. Can you believe it? Luna: No way. That's incredible. I feel like we just started and now we're at episode 100. Lucas: And we've covered so much — greetings, days of the week, weather, time, numbers up to 30. Speaking of numbers, today we're going to 40. Luna: Numbers 31 to 40. Yes! I've been wanting to learn how to say thirty-one, thirty-two, and all that. In Amharic, thirty is ሠላሳ, right? Lucas: Exactly. ሠላሳ. So to say thirty-one, you say ሠላሳ አንድ. Try it. Luna: ሠላሳ አንድ. Lucas: Perfect. Thirty-two is ሠላሳ ሁለት. Luna: ሠላሳ ሁለት. Lucas: And thirty-three: ሠላሳ ሦስት. Luna: ሠላሳ ሦስት. Lucas: You've got the pattern. It's just ሠላሳ plus the ones digit. So thirty-four is ሠላሳ አራት. Luna: ሠላሳ አራት. Lucas: Thirty-five: ሠላሳ አምስት. Luna: ሠላሳ አምስት. Lucas: Thirty-six: ሠላሳ ስድስት. Luna: ሠላሳ ስድስት. Lucas: Thirty-seven: ሠላሳ ሰባት. Luna: ሠላሳ ሰባት. Lucas: Thirty-eight: ሠላሳ ስምንት. Luna: ሠላሳ ስምንት. Lucas: Thirty-nine: ሠላሳ ዘጠኝ. Luna: ሠላሳ ዘጠኝ. Lucas: And forty is አርባ. Luna: አርባ. Lucas: Let's practice all of them together. I'll say the English, you answer in Amharic. Thirty-one. Luna: ሠላሳ አንድ. Lucas: Thirty-two. Luna: ሠላሳ ሁለት. Lucas: Thirty-three. Luna: ሠላሳ ሦስት. Lucas: Thirty-four. Luna: ሠላሳ አራት. Lucas: Thirty-five. Luna: ሠላሳ አምስት. Lucas: Thirty-six. Luna: ሠላሳ ስድስት. Lucas: Thirty-seven. Luna: ሠላሳ ሰባት. Lucas: Thirty-eight. Luna: ሠላሳ ስምንት. Lucas: Thirty-nine. Luna: ሠላሳ ዘጠኝ. Lucas: Forty. Luna: አርባ. Lucas: Nailed it.

No pressure, just a way to keep the show exactly as it is. Luna: Absolutely. And now, let's put these numbers to use. Imagine you're at a market and someone asks you how many birr something costs. Lucas: Good idea. Say an item costs 35 birr. You'd say ሠላሳ አምስት ብር ነው. Luna: ሠላሳ አምስት ብር ነው. Lucas: Or 38 birr: ሠላሳ ስምንት ብር ነው. Luna: ሠላሳ ስምንት ብር ነው. Lucas: Let's do a quick review of the whole set one more time. Repeat after me: ሠላሳ አንድ. Luna: ሠላሳ አንድ. Lucas: ሠላሳ ሁለት. Luna: ሠላሳ ሁለት. Lucas: ሠላሳ ሦስት. Luna: ሠላሳ ሦስት. Lucas: ሠላሳ አራት. Luna: ሠላሳ አራት. Lucas: ሠላሳ አምስት. Luna: ሠላሳ አምስት. Lucas: ሠላሳ ስድስት. Luna: ሠላሳ ስድስት. Lucas: ሠላሳ ሰባት. Luna: ሠላሳ ሰባት. Lucas: ሠላሳ ስምንት. Luna: ሠላሳ ስምንት. Lucas: ሠላሳ ዘጠኝ. Luna: ሠላሳ ዘጠኝ. Lucas: አርባ. Luna: አርባ. Lucas: Awesome.
