31th or 31st is correct? - English Language Usage Stack Exchange Closed 14 years ago I just realized that I’ve never needed to use 31th or 31st in my four years English study So which one is correct, and what about other alternatives? 31 th or 31 st 101 th or 101 st 1001 th or 1001 st Can I also use that way everywhere in the same way (for example, ordinal numbers in math)?
What happened to the “‑est” and “‑eth” verb suffixes in English? During the Early Modern English period, the 2nd person singular suffix disappeared and the -th suffix in the third person was replaced by another suffix, -s, which spread from dialects in the northern parts of the country Other conjugations, such as -e in the first person singular from Middle English, had already been lost
Distinguishing f–t–θ in th-fronting and th-stopping dialects Wikipedia notes that th -stopping dialects generally distinguish between the dental stop of thanks [t̪æŋks] and the alveolar stop of tanks [tæŋks], but they lose the t–θ opposition in some cases like tree three, and the d–ð opposition is even weaker
