Vzorec užití:
the thirteenth [item/event/day/person]
Častá chyba:
Learners often confuse 'thirteen' (the number) with 'thirteenth' (the order). Use 'thirteen' for counting (There are thirteen students) and 'thirteenth' for position (He is the thirteenth student in line). Another mistake is forgetting 'the' before ordinal numbers: in English we usually say 'the thirteenth floor', not just 'thirteenth floor' except in note-like headings.
Synonyma

Častá chyba:
Learners sometimes say 'thirteen of June' instead of 'the thirteenth of June' for dates. Always use the ordinal form with 'the' for spoken dates in British English: 'the thirteenth of June' or 'June the thirteenth'. Also, in sports results, remember to drop 'place' after ordinals when it is clear: 'He finished thirteenth', not 'He finished the thirteenth'.
