What is the Spanish word for the number 24?

The Spanish word for the number 24 is "veinticuatro." This term is derived from the combination of "veinti-" which indicates numbers in the twenties (20-29) and "cuatro," which means four. Thus, when combined, "veinticuatro" directly translates to twenty-four.

In contrast, the other options represent different numbers. "Veintidós" stands for twenty-two, "treinta" means thirty, and "veinticinco" is twenty-five. Understanding the structure of Spanish numbers can help solidify the reasoning behind choosing "veinticuatro" for the number 24. Recognizing patterns in how numbers are formed in Spanish is essential for vocabulary development in the language.
