To read a sum of money, first read the whole number, then add the currency name. Just say the number and then add the word 'percent'. Percentages are easy to read aloud in English. This applies to all numbers except for the number 2, which is read 'half' when it is the denominator, and 'halves' if there is more than one. Read fractions using the cardinal number for the numerator and the ordinal number for the denominator, making the ordinal number plural if the numerator is larger than 1. Read decimals aloud in English by pronouncing the decimal point as 'point', then read each digit individually.
