19 (nineteen) is the natural number following 18 (number), 18 and preceding 20 (number), 20. It is a prime number.
is the eighth prime number, and forms a sexy prime with 13 (number), 13, a twin prime with 17 (number), 17, and a cousin prime with 23 (number), 23. It is the third full reptend prime, the fifth Trinomial triangle#Central trinomial coefficients, central trinomial coefficient, and the seventh Mersenne prime exponent. It is also the second Keith number, and more specifically the first Keith prime.
* 19 is the maximum number of fourth powers needed to sum up to any natural number, and in the context of Waring's problem, 19 is the fourth value of Waring's problem#The number g(k), g(k).
* The sum of the squares of the first 19 primes is divisible by 19.
*19 is the sixth Heegner number. 67 (number), 67 and 163 (number), 163, respectively the 19th and 38th prime numbers, are the two largest Heegner numbers, of 9, nine total.

: The 19th triangular number is 190 (number), 190, equivalently the sum of the first 19 non-zero integers, that is also the sixth centered nonagonal number.
:19 is the first number in an infinite sequence of numbers whose digits start with 1 and have trailing 9's, that form triangular numbers containing Zero, trailing zeroes in proportion to 9s present in the original number; i.e. 19900 is the 199th triangular number, and 1999000 is the 1999th.
:Like 19, 199 and 1999 are also both prime, as are 199999 and 19999999. In fact, a number of the form 19''n'', where ''n'' denotes the number of nines that terminate in the number, is prime for ''n'' = 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 26, 27, 53, 147, 236, 248, 386, 401.

Religion
Islam
* The number of angels guarding Hell ("Hellfire") ("Saqar") according to the Qur'an: ''"Over it are nineteen"'' (al-Muddaththir, 74:30), after which the Qur'an describes this number as being ''"a trial for those who disbelieve"'' (74:31), a sign for people of the scripture to be ''"convinced"'' (74:31) and that believers ''"will increase in faith"'' (74:31) due to it. * The Number of Verse and Sura together in the Qur'an which announces Jesus son of Maryam's (Mary's) birth (Qur'an 19:19). * A group called United Submitter International claim the Quran has mathematical structure based on the number 19. The gematrical value of WAHD = 6+1+8+4=19, Wahd means 'One' (God) to the first verse (1:1), known as Bas-malah, consists of 19 Arabic letters or the Quran consists of 114 (19x6) surat etc.Baháʼí faith
In the Bábism, Bábí and Baháʼí Faiths, a group of 19 is called a ''Váhid'', a Unity (Arabic language, Arabic: واحد ''wāhid'', "one"). The numerical value of this word in the Abjad numerals, Abjad numeral system is 19. * The Baháʼí calendar is structured such that a year contains 19 months of 19 days each (along with the Intercalation (timekeeping), intercalary period of Ayyám-i-Há), as well as a 19-year cycle and a 361-year (19x19) supercycle. *The Báb and his Letters of the Living, disciples formed a group of 19. *There were 19 Apostles of Bahá'u'lláh.Celtic paganism
19 is a sacred number of the goddess Brigid because it is said to represent the 19-year cycle of the Great Celtic Year and the amount of time it takes the Moon to coincide with the winter solstice./ref>
Music
*"19 (song), 19" is a 1985 song by Paul Hardcastle, including sampling (music), sampled soundbites taken from a documentary about the Vietnam War in which 19 is claimed to have been the average age of United States soldiers killed in the conflict. The song was parodied by British satirist Rory Bremner under the pseudonym 'The Commentators,' as ''N-n-nineteen, Not Out'', the title referring to the batting average of David Gower, the England cricket team, England cricket captain, during his side's risible performance against the West Indies cricket team, West Indies in 1984 when they lost 5–0. *"I Was Only Nineteen" by the Australian group Redgum reached number one on the Australian charts in 1983. In 2005 a hip hop version of the song was produced by The Herd (Australian band), The Herd. *''19 (Adele album), 19'' is the name of Adele's 2008 debut album, so named since she was 19 years old at the time. *"Hey Nineteen" is a song by American jazz rock band Steely Dan, on the 1980 album ''Gaucho''. *Nineteen has been used as an alternative to twelve for a division of the octave into equal parts. This idea goes back to Francisco de Salinas, Salinas in the sixteenth century, and is interesting in part because it gives a system of meantone tuning, being close to 1/3 comma meantone. ''See 19 equal temperament.'' *Some organs use the 19th harmonic to approximate a minor third.Literature
*Stephen King's eight-book epic The Dark Tower (series), ''The Dark Tower'' saga employs the number 19 in books ''The Dark Tower: The Gunslinger'', ''The Dark Tower V: Wolves of the Calla'', ''The Dark Tower VI: Song of Susannah'', ''The Dark Tower VII: The Dark Tower'', and ''The Wind Through the Keyhole'' as a mysterious and important number. They refer to the "ka-tet of 19", "Directive Nineteen," many names add up to 19, 19 seems to permeate every aspect of Roland and his traveler's lives. In addition, the number ends up being a powerful key. *In Jodi Picoult's bestselling book ''Nineteen Minutes'', the number 19 is referenced multiple times. It is most commonly referenced when referring to the main subject of the book, the school shooting rampage that took place over a span of 19 minutes. *The novel ''S. (Dorst novel), S.'' by Doug Dorst uses 19 and its multiples throughout. S is the 19th letter of the alphabet.Games
*The game of Go (game), Go is played on a grid of 19×19 lines (though variants can be played on grids of other sizes).
*Though the maximum score for a cribbage hand is 29, there is no combination of cards that adds up to 19 points. Many cribbage players, therefore, jokingly refer to a zero-point hand as "a 19 hand".

Age 19
*In four countries, 19 is the age of majority. *In two countries, 19 is the minimum legal drinking age. *In three countries, 19 is the minimum legal smoking age.In sports
* In golf, the '19th hole' is the clubhouse bar and in match play, if there is a tie after 18 holes, an extra hole(s) is played. In miniature golf it is an extra hole on which the winner earns an instant prize.Other fields
* The 19th Amendment to the United States Constitution gave American women the right to vote. * The Vietnam War spanned over 19 years, from November 1955 to April 1975.References
