數字有分為「基數」Cardinal numbers 和「序數」Ordinal numbers這兩類

基數：表示事物的數量，像是(1)one, (2)two, (3)three ..等
序數：是指排順序的數字，像是(第一)first, (第二)second, (第三)third..等

30	thirty	30th	thirtieth

1th和 1st 的差別在哪裡？哪個正確？

For numbers ending in 1, 2 and 3, (except 11, 12, 13)
1 – first (1st)
2 – second (2nd)
3 – third (3rd)

從上表可知道1″st”才是正確的，是從first縮寫而成，所以不使用1th 而是使用1st。21, 31, 41..後面尾數是1的，序數縮寫都需要改成”st”, e.g., 21st , 31st, 41st and so on.
(但特別注意的是11的英文單字是eleventh縮寫是11″th”，如果寫成11″st”就錯囉。)
