30 § 45. —For the declension of ūnus see § 29.

Dŭŏ two, and trēs three are thus declined:— Ambō both is declined like duŏ, except that the o is long. Duŏ (not ambō) has sometimes G. in -um, duum, of all genders. Comp. § 268.

The Cardinals from quattŭŏr to centum are indeclinable.

Dŭcenti, etc., are declined like the Pl. of Adjectives in -us.

Mīllĕ is indeclinable in the Sing.: in the Plur. (as dŭŏ mīlĭă two thousand) it is declined as a Neut. Noun; thus:

Ordinals are declined like Adjectives in -ŭs, -ă, -um; Distributives like the Plur. of such Adjectives.

PRONOUNS. § 46. are of six kinds:

Personal Pronouns, used instead of Nouns, to show the person spoken of; as tū thou, nōs we. Possessive Pronouns, used as Adjectives, to show the person who possesses the thing named; as tŭŭs thy, thine, nostĕr our, ours.
