How to do say four hundred in Spanish?

Question

I received my minor in spanish (I'm a non-native speaker) and you wouldn't believe how fast you forget some of the most simple words. Yo creo que estoy familiar con la palabra, pero no estoy seguro. La palabra es "four hundred" y mi entendimiento es "cuatrocientos". Esta correcta? o no. As a side note: I think this company does a fabulous job offering students in spanish courses a plethora of opportunities to learn and master the language. When I finished my spanish minor one year ago, I am convinced that my ability to do so was the result of using this website. I sincerely thank you. Keep it the good work!

Answer 2

Four = cuatro. Confer cuadrilateral (four sides), quarter (fourth), square (four sides), squadron (soldiers forming a four side formation)

Cient = hundred. Confer cent (a hundredth of a coin), century (a hundred years), centipede (hundred feet)

Hey....bienvenido al foro!

I understand about the numbers -- for some reason they seem to partially stick in the brain and we remember some weird combination of five hundred and four. Jejeje.

Here's a link to refresh you memory.

Hope to see you around the forum.
