As a general rule, the format of telling a phone number is as follows: (x|xx) x|xx xx|xx where the gloss symbol ‘x’ represents a number, the gloss symbol | shows whether one signs a single number or two-digit number, and the space reflects a slight pause between numbers.

’21st’ or ’21th’ ? Thanks in advance. There are a lot of websites written by non-English speakers let alone poorly trained English speakers, and very few ever bother to have their texts checked or corrected. 21st [“twenty-first”]is the correct form.
21st, 31st, 41st, etc. all use –st like 1st. 22nd, 32nd, 42nd, etc. all use -nd like 2nd.
Therefore 22 in words is written as Twenty Two.
