我一直试图找到一个使用单词递增计数器的函数。我知道可能使用带后缀的数字（即第1，第2，第3等）。这是我得到的代码片段：
function addOrdinalNumberSuffix($num) {
if (!in_array(($num % 100),array(11,12,13))){
switch ($num % 10) {
// Handle 1st, 2nd, 3rd
case 1: return $num.'st';
case 2: return $num.'nd';
case 3: return $num.'rd';
}
}
return $num.'th';
}
但有没有办法用文字复制它（即第一，第二，第三等......）？
我希望创建一个无限计数器非常困难（但并非不可能），但任何高达20的计数器就足够了。
非常感谢任何帮助。

PEAR包中有class可以做到这一点：
<?php
// include class
include("Numbers/Words.php");
// create object
$nw = new Numbers_Words();
// convert to string
echo "600 in words is " . $nw->toWords(600);
?>

二十并不是硬编码。你只需要一个数组，而不是一个函数。
$array = array('First', 'Second', 'Third', ...);
foreach ($array as $key => $value)
{
echo "$value index is $key";
}
更直接的答案是：没有内置功能能够满足您的需求。

这里有一些伪代码可能会带来希望的好方法：
input = //any number
output = string (input)
if output ends with '1' then output += 'st'
else if output ends with '2' then output += 'nd'
else if output ends with '3' then output += 'rd'
else output += 'th'

普通（仅英文），基于SIFE的回答：
include("Numbers/Words.php");
function Nth($n)
{
$nw = new Numbers_Words();
$s = $nw->toWords($n);
$replacements = array(
'one' => 'first',
'two' => 'second',
'three' => 'third',
've' => 'fth',
't' => 'th',

'' => 'th',

foreach ($replacements as $from => $to)

这是一个简单的PHP函数的链接，它显示了如何以一种简单的方式处理它： http://webdeveloperblog.tiredmachine.com/php-converting-an-integer-123-to-ordinal-word-firstsecondthird/
所提供的示例仅适用于五十年代，但可以轻松扩展以达到更高的范围。
function numToOrdinalWord($num)
{
$first_word = array('eth','First','Second','Third','Fouth','Fifth','Sixth','Seventh','Eighth','Ninth','Tenth','Elevents','Twelfth','Thirteenth','Fourteenth','Fifteenth','Sixteenth','Seventeenth','Eighteenth','Nineteenth','Twentieth');
$second_word =array('','','Twenty','Thirthy','Forty','Fifty');
if($num <= 20)
return $first_word[$num];
$first_num = substr($num,-1,1);
$second_num = substr($num,-2,1);
return $string = str_replace('y-eth','ieth',$second_word[$second_num].'-'.$first_word[$first_num]);
}

一个简短的小技巧来达到相同的结果是（ab）使用date()。
$num = 2;
echo date("jS", strtotime("January {$num}"));
// Output
"2nd"
尽管最多只能运行31个，并且可能比仅使用Parris建议的数组要慢。
