안녕하세요 여러분,
I want to use first, second, etc. in a sentence, ie say “first car, first love, etc”In this case, would using의 be correct as the linking particle, eg 가장 자동차, 가장 사랑?
감사합니다!

Answer
For ordinals, the general construction is ~ [눈] {위해} – in this case, not meaning eye but rather * -th
as in [첫번째] {いちばんめ} = 1st
as in [둘째] {두번째} = 2nd
etc.
but in the case of first love [첫사랑] {개연 } and the use of 최초 with the pronunciation 하츠 is common for several of these types of firsts.
More generally for the first instance of something you can use [최초] {학시} 馬手의
eg
처음 사랑 = first love
처음 차 = first car
첫 영어 수업 = first English lesson
if you use this pattern, then the second is [두] {뚜껑} 개 [눈] {위해} Third is [세] {카미} 개 [눈] {위해}

- “처음”다음 “두 번째, 세 번째 나두 번째, 세 번째 는?
- Be aware the particle ' ' can change to '에 ' in a sentence like “일본에서 두 번째로 큰 도시는 오사카입니다.”" in japan the second largest city is Osaka "
