66th

66th is the ordinal form used to indicate the sixtysixth item in a sequence. It functions as a positional descriptor in a wide range of contexts, from geography and politics to culture and the military. In English, ordinals are formed by attaching the suffix -th to the cardinal number, so 66 becomes 66th.

Common uses include: geographic designations like 66th Street or 66th Avenue, which mark a place's position in a grid or street system. In government and administration, the term designates a specific session, body, or edition, such as the 66th United States Congress (1919–1921). In law and governance, state or provincial legislatures may count their sessions using ordinal numbers as well.

In the military, units, formations, and battalions are often numbered, including references to the 66th Division, 66th Regiment, or similar designations, each indicating a separate unit or unit history.

In culture and media, the 66th edition of a competition or award ceremony is a common label; for example, the 66th Academy Awards occurred in the United States in 1994. Milestones and anniversaries are frequently described using ordinals, such as a 66th birthday or a 66th anniversary.
