Hi, I'll add to (or repeat something) what Rimas wrote about Lithuanian.

Are these numbers correct in your language? > Seems to be correct for Lithuanian, however, gender issue arises for ordinal numbers. Moreover, dot is never used as an ordinal indicator in Lithuanian. Instead, either "-as" (masculine) or "-a" (feminine) is appended to a number as an ordinal indicator (again, dependent on the gender). If a year should be spelled out in Lithuanian, it would require yet another form - pronominal plural numeral. 2.

There's only one version of Lithuanian language that suits everyone. And we don't add "and" in the middle of spelled out numerals. 3.

Luckily, there's only two genders and only the last word of the numeral has to be changed according to the gender. Out of the few words that were listed, book, part, section, paragraph are feminine: pirma knyga, pirma dalis, pirma sekcija, pirma pastraipa. Chapter and page are masculine: pirmas skyrius, pirmas puslapis. Numerals usualy go together with noun, I can't think of a common case where there could be number alone. Also, ordinal number always comes before noun, so it's always "first chapter", and never "chapter first" or "chapter one".
