- numbers and the ORDINAL (or descriptive) numbers.

- <span class="bold"><strong><span xml:lang="ru" class="foreignphrase"><em xml:lang="ru" class="foreignphrase">кака́я?</em></span></strong></span>
- <span class="bold"><strong><span xml:lang="ru" class="foreignphrase"><em xml:lang="ru" class="foreignphrase">како́е?</em></span></strong></span>
- <span class="bold"><strong><span xml:lang="ru" class="foreignphrase"><em xml:lang="ru" class="foreignphrase">каки́е?</em></span></strong></span> Remember
- these from Lesson 2? Therefore, they'll behave just as any adjective does, agreeing with the
- nouns they modify in GENDER, NUMBER AND CASE.</p><p>In this lesson, you saw the expressions <span class="bold"><strong><span xml:lang="ru" class="foreignphrase"><em xml:lang="ru" class="foreignphrase">на первое</em></span></strong></span>, <span class="bold"><strong><span xml:lang="ru" class="foreignphrase"><em xml:lang="ru" class="foreignphrase">на второе</em></span></strong></span> where there were
- only ordinal numbers (in the neuter) and no noun. The understood noun in these instances was
- <span class="bold"><strong><span xml:lang="ru" class="foreignphrase"><em xml:lang="ru" class="foreignphrase">блю́до</em></span></strong></span>. So,
- <span class="bold"><strong><span xml:lang="ru" class="foreignphrase"><em xml:lang="ru" class="foreignphrase">пе́рвое блю́до</em></span></strong></span>
- means first course, <span class="bold"><strong><span xml:lang="ru" class="foreignphrase"><em xml:lang="ru" class="foreignphrase">второ́е
- блю́до</em></span></strong></span> means second course.</p><p>You will also use the ordinal numbers to indicate the date:</p><p><span class="bold"><strong><span xml:lang="ru" class="foreignphrase"><em xml:lang="ru" class="foreignphrase">Сего́дня
- деся́тое</em></span></strong></span> (<span class="bold"><strong><span xml:lang="ru" class="foreignphrase"><em xml:lang="ru" class="foreignphrase">число́</em></span></strong></span>-understood, not expressed) <span class="bold"><strong><span xml:lang="ru" class="foreignphrase"><em xml:lang="ru" class="foreignphrase">апре́ля</em></span></strong></span>.</p><p>Here are a few ordinal numbers and their corresponding cardinal forms. The ordinals are
- given in the masculine.</p><div class="informaltable"><table class="informaltable" width="100%" border="0"><colgroup span="1"><col width="5cm" class="c1" span="1"/><col width="5cm" class="c2" span="1"/></colgroup><tbody><tr><td rowspan="1" colspan="1">
