* En anglais, lorsqu’on énonce les chiffres un à un, on prononce en général le zéro oh: mon numéro de poste est le 403 = my extension number is 403 ( dire four oh three).

Pour la température, on utilise zero: il fait zéro = it’s zero.

Pour les scores dans les jeux et les sports, on utilise en général nil (GB) zero (US), sauf au tennis, où zéro se dit love.

† Noter que forty s’écrit sans u, alors que fourteen et fourth s’écrivent comme four.

‡ Les formes avec one s’utilisent lorsqu’on veut insister sur la précision du chiffre. Dans les autres cas, on utilise plutôt a.

§ Noter que and s’utilise en anglais britannique entre hundred ou thousand et le chiffre des dizaines ou des unités (mais pas entre thousand et le chiffre des centaines). Il ne s’utilise pas en anglais américain.

¶ Noter que million est invariable en anglais dans ce cas.

|| Attention: un billion américain vaut un milliard (1000 millions), alors qu’un billion britannique vaut 1000 milliards. Le billion américain est de plus en plus utilisé en Grande-Bretagne.

L’anglais million s’utilise ici comme adjectif. Noter l’absence d’équivalent anglais de la préposition de après million.

L’anglais utilise aussi les mots hundreds, thousands, millions etc. au pluriel, comme en français:

= I’ve got hundreds

= thousands of books

= the thousands of books I have read

= hundreds and hundreds

= thousands and thousands

Pour les numéraux français en -aine (dizaine, douzaine, quinzaine, vingtaine, trentaine, quarantaine, cinquantaine, soixantaine et centaine) lorsqu’ils désignent une somme approximative, l’anglais utilise le chiffre avec la préposition about ou around.
