Usage notes
- In Modern Hebrew, when the numbers three through ten modify a definite masculine noun and are directly preceding it, the construct form is used:
- עֲשָׂרָה סְפָרִים ― asará s'farím ― ten books
- עֲשֶׂרֶת הַסְּפָרִים ― aséret has'farím ― the ten books
- The construct form is not used for higher numbers ending in ten, such as a hundred and ten:
- מֵאָה וַעֲשָׂרָה הַסְּפָרִים ― me'á va'asará has'farím ― the hundred and ten books
- In colloquial Modern Hebrew, the form עֶשֶׂר (éser) is often used regardless of gender.
