siebtens

siebtens is a German word that translates to "seventh" in English. It is an ordinal number, indicating a position in a sequence or order. For instance, siebtens could refer to the seventh day of the week, the seventh item in a list, or the seventh person in a queue.

In German grammar, siebtens is used as an adjective or an adverb. As an adjective, it modifies a noun and typically takes an inflectional ending depending on the gender, number, and case of the noun it modifies. For example, "der siebte Tag" means "the seventh day." As an adverb, it describes how or when an action occurs, often meaning "seventhly" or "in the seventh place." For example, "Er kam siebtens an" could be interpreted as "He arrived seventh."

The word siebtens is derived from the cardinal number "sieben," which means "seven." The "-tens" suffix is a common German ending used to form ordinal numbers. This is similar to how "-th" is used in English to form ordinal numbers from cardinal numbers (e.g., seven to seventh). Understanding the usage of siebtens is important for comprehending German text and speech, particularly when dealing with sequences, rankings, or specific positions.
