Numbers 1–10

Numbers don't change for gender or case (mostly)

Unlike German nouns and articles, the numbers 2–12 don't change based on the gender or case of what's being counted — a rare easy corner of German grammar. The exception is eins ("one"), which behaves like ein/eine (the indefinite article) and changes with gender and case — similar to how Hindi's एक doesn't change form itself, but you always have to keep the gender of the following noun in mind: ein Mann, eine Frau, ein Kind — "one man/woman/child."
