If a number ends in -tre, you need to add an accent: -trè. When you have a word that ends in a vowel, like venti, and another word that begins with a vowel, like uno; the first word loses its vowel when putting the two words together.  Venti (20) and uno (1) make ventuno (21).  One exception is cento; it does not lose its vowel.  Cento (100) and uno (1) make centouno (101).  Notice that cento does not have a plural form, but mille does (mila). And be aware that Italian switches the use of commas and decimals.

Ordinal Numbers

first	primo / prima
second	secondo / seconda
third	terzo / terza
fourth	quarto / quarta
fifth	quinto / quinta
sixth	sesto / sesta
seventh	settimo / settima
eighth	ottavo / ottava
ninth	nono / nona
tenth	decimo / decima
eleventh	undicesimo / undicesima
twentieth	ventesimo / ventesima
hundredth	centesimo / centesima

From eleventh on, just drop the final vowel of the cardinal number and add -esimo.  For numbers like ventitrè, trentatrè, add -esimo but do not drop the final e.  Ordinal numbers are adjectives and must agree with the nouns they modify; -o is the masculine ending, -a is the feminine ending.
