עֲשָׂרָה • (asará) m (construct עֲשֶׂרֶת (aséret), feminine עֶשֶׂר (éser))

1. ten

• 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.

• Last: תִּשְׁעָה (tish'á)
• Next: אַחַד עָשָׂר (akhád asár)

• אֲרוּחַת עֶשֶׂר (arukhát éser)
