Numerals
The numeral system relies on a decimal base.
The first ten cardinal numbers are forms on their own:
| pɛ́m | |
| laz | |
| xúð | |
| ǧàr | |
| šu | |
| túg | |
| kír | |
| žér | |
| bɔp | |
| šùl |
Numerals from 11 to 19 are built with the construction NUM + šùl, with one irregular form:
| pɛ́mšùl | |
| lažùl | |
| xúðšùl | |
| ǧàršùl | |
| šušùl | |
| túgšùl | |
| kíršùl | |
| žéršùl | |
| bɔpšùl |
The numerals for (one) hundred and (one) thousand are forms on their own:
| ìm | |
| hɔrìm |
The numerals for the multiples of tens, hundreds and thousands are built with the construction NUM + -(a)ražùl / -(a)razìm / -(a)razhɔrìm:
| lazražùl | lazrazìm | lazrazhɔrìm | |
| xúðražùl | xúðrazìm | xúðrazhɔrìm | |
| ǧàraražùl | ǧàrarazìm | ǧàrarazhɔrìm | |
| šuražùl | šurazìm | šurazhɔrìm | |
| túgražùl | túgrazìm | túgrazhɔrìm | |
| kíraražùl | kírarazìm | kírarazhɔrìm | |
| žéraražùl | žérarazìm | žérarazhɔrìm | |
| bɔpražùl | bɔprazìm | bɔprazhɔrìm |
Numbers above the multiples of thousands have no name and are specified by the lesser numerals.
Composite numbers are built by just putting them beside, without any conjunction, in descending order:
- 2985: lazrazhɔrìm bɔprazìm žéraražùl šu
As for other parts of the language, all cardinal numerals are meant as invariable forms.
Ordinal numerals are formed by adding the prefix pe- and the suffix -ta to the cardinal numeral form:
| pepɛ́mta | |
| pelazta | |
| pexúðta | |
| peǧàrta | |
| pešuta | |
| petúgta | |
| pekírta | |
| pežérta | |
| pebɔpta | |
| pešùlta | |
| pepɛ́mšùlta | |
| pelažùlta | |
| pelazražùlta | |
| pexúðražùlta | |
| petúgrazìmta | |
| pebɔparazhɔrìmta |
If the numeral form is composite, both affixes are added to every form:
- 325th: pexúðrazìmta pelazražùlta pešuta
