Depends.i'm pretty sure the adjective comes AFTER the noun..
you should also add the 10's of numbers... going up to 100
20 - veinte
30 - treinta
40 - cuaranta
50 - cincuenta
60 - sesenta
70 - setenta
80 - ochenta
90 - noventa
100 - cien
they always come in handy because you can work out every no. between 1-100 with them.
People say feliz cumpleaños and cumpleaños feliz
The song goes "Cumpleaños feliz..."
To say the units, you say the ten, e.g. treinta, then "y uno", for 31. Just thought I would add it.i'm pretty sure the adjective comes AFTER the noun..

In the twenties though, you say "veintiuno" for 21. So all you do is swap the last 'e' for an 'i' and add the unit.

Thanks for this.
Although it's always the grammer that gets me in Spanish.
There are a few errors here and there, if you are doing written Spanish you will have to always double check accents as they are crucial.
One is also 'uno' not 'un'
Also Hello is usually written like so;¡Hola!. There is no big reason, it just tends to be so in Spanish.
You also combined 'Estoy OK' which is an English with a Spanish word, not usually spoken in Spain.
Anyway just really pin-pointing those finite errors. Other than that nice effort . I could by this point start sounding like your Spanish teacher ;o!

lol thanks for that if i ever suffer with any problems in spain with speach. ill be sure on to this thread :L
You put "N" as No, typo?
Forgive me if I'm wrong, but those translations are all very literal, as if you've used a translator?
For example Hasta Luego doesn't necessarily mean See you tomorrow, it's often used simply as we would use 'cya'.
Happy birthday can be either way round, Cumpleanos Feliz is the more spanish way of saying it.
As mentioned above, you should add "?Dondé esta?" for where is...
Or just list the basic question words, I think they'll help.
~ lol
hahaha i like when people say "feliz ano nuevo" because it is "Feliz año nuevo". Ano means A_SHOLE so its like happy new A_SHOLE jajajaajaj xd
and purple is morado or lila i think that violeta is violet in english xd
