The numeral 197 У кожній кімнаті по чотири стільці. There are four chairs in each room. У всіх восьми сестер по одному братові. All eight sisters have one brother each. 5.2 THE ORDINALS The ordinals are straightforward, agreeing in case, gender, and number with the noun phrase which they qualify. They differ from adjectives only in the obvious way of not being able to be piled up in qualification of a single noun phrase, i.e. as one cannot say 'the seventh eleventh white house'. Where a compound ordinal is concerned, such as 'the 127th book', then in Ukrainian only the final component will take the ordinal form and agree as necessary; the preceding components will take the cardinal form and be indeclinable, for example: сто двадцять сьома книжка the 127th book сорок перший дом the 41st house 5.2.1 TIME EXPRESSIONS Ordinal numerals are used in the expression of time and 'time when', including the time of day and expressions of the year and 'year when'. 5.2.1.1 Years As in all other large ordinal numerals, only the last element is an ordinal and it is the only one to change its form. 'The Year X' is a nominative construction, while 'in the Year X' is a locative construction: тисяча дев'ятсот дев'яносто дев'ятий рік the year 1999 у тисяча вісімсот п'ятдесят шостому році in 1856 5.2.1.2 Hours (time of day) Котра година? What time is it? (lit. 'Which hour?') Восьма (It's) eight (o'clock). Дванадцята twelve Третя three Fractions of the hour are expressed by means of a number of constructions, most of which involve the use of prepositions: на + ace, no + loc, за + ace, до + gen.
