Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about this tool.

Why are 11th, 12th and 13th exceptions?

Because the rule depends on the last two digits rather than the last one. Numbers ending 1, 2 and 3 normally take st, nd and rd — but 11, 12 and 13 take th, and so does anything ending in them: 111th, 212th, 313th. This is the case almost every hand-written implementation gets wrong.

Should the suffix be raised as superscript?

In print, sometimes; on the web, generally not. Screen readers handle a superscript suffix inconsistently, and search engines treat 1st and 1ˢᵗ as different strings — plain text is both more accessible and more reliably matched.

Is my text sent anywhere when I use Ordinal Number Converter?

No. The text you paste is handled in your browser and never leaves the page. That makes it safe for drafts, customer lists and anything else you would rather keep to yourself.

Is there a limit on how much text I can paste?

The site sets none. Long documents are handled by your own device, so a whole book may be slow on an older phone. Articles, essays and long lists are no trouble.

Can I use Ordinal Number Converter without making an account?

Yes. There is no login, no email to hand over and no daily limit. Open the page, paste or type, and copy or download the result when it is ready.

Why does my word count differ from Microsoft Word?

Programs treat hyphenated words, numbers and symbols a little differently. The gap is usually a few words in a long piece. If a teacher or portal sets a limit, stay a little under it to be safe.

Do the QR codes made here expire?

No. The information is stored directly in the pattern, with no redirect through our servers, so the code keeps working for as long as the link or text inside it stays valid.
