Introduction
When it comes to expressing monetary values in Spanish, it is important to understand how to properly say them to avoid any confusion. In this article, we will focus on how to say amounts ranging from 5 to 20 pence in Spanish. Let’s dive in!
The Basics
In Spanish, the word for pence is “céntimos” or “centavos.” To say an amount like 5 pence, you can use the phrase “cinco céntimos” or “cinco centavos.” Similarly, for 10 pence, you can say “diez céntimos” or “diez centavos.” It’s as simple as that!
Numbers 11 to 15
When expressing values from 11 to 15 pence, there is a slight variation in the phrasing. Here’s how to do it:
11 pence: “once céntimos” or “once centavos”
12 pence: “doce céntimos” or “doce centavos”
13 pence: “trece céntimos” or “trece centavos”
14 pence: “catorce céntimos” or “catorce centavos”
15 pence: “quince céntimos” or “quince centavos”

For numbers ranging from 16 to 20 pence, the phrasing changes once again. Let’s take a look:
16 pence: “dieciséis céntimos” or “dieciséis centavos”
17 pence: “diecisiete céntimos” or “diecisiete centavos”
18 pence: “dieciocho céntimos” or “dieciocho centavos”
19 pence: “diecinueve céntimos” or “diecinueve centavos”
20 pence: “veinte céntimos” or “veinte centavos”
Using Currencies
If you want to specify the currency while mentioning these amounts, let’s say British pounds, you can use the phrase “libras esterlinas” after the amount. For instance:
– 12 pence: “doce céntimos de libras esterlinas”
– 18 pence: “dieciocho céntimos de libras esterlinas”
