How to build numbers with hundreds
Directly attach the rest
Unlike English, Italian does not use the word “and”. You smash the hundreds digit right into the tens or units.
cento + dieci = centodieci (110) · duecento + cinquanta = duecentocinquanta (250)
Vowel dropping
When attaching uno (1) or otto (8), drop the ‘o’ at the end of cento.
cento + uno = centuno OR centouno (101) · cento + ottanta = centottanta OR centoottanta (180)

Building thousands
Simply write out your starting numbers exactly as you learned them, and instantly attach “mila” directly to the end of it.
quarantatré + mila = quarantatremila (43,000) · ottantuno + mila = ottantunomila (81,000)
