Explanation
Eighteen is the number that comes after seventeen and before nineteen. It is written as 18. It can describe a total of eighteen things or people. For example, “There are eighteen students in the classroom.” In many countries, eighteen is an important age because people are considered adults legally: they can vote, drive, or sign contracts. As a noun, it refers to the number itself. As an adjective, it shows the quantity. For example, “He bought eighteen balloons.”
