The numerals for ''(one) hundred'' and ''(one) thousand'' are forms on their own:
Numerals from 11 to 19 are built with the construction NUM + phḗʔo + na:
{|-
{|-
|-
|-
| style="width: 40px;"| <center><small>''digit''</small></center> || <center><small>''noun form''</small></center>  
| style="width: 40px;"| <center><small>''digit''</small></center> || <center><small>''full form''</small></center>

|-
|-
| <center>''1000'':</center> || '''k̇ajʂ-'''
| <center>''11'':</center> || šā́ʔophḗʔona
|}
 
If these roots have an adjoining noun, the adjectival ending '''-i''' is added to them. They are therefore treated like an adjective and declined in agreement with the noun.
 
'''ʂewṗ-''' → '''ʂewṗ-''' + '''-i-''' → '''ʂewṗi'''
<small>five</small>
 
If these roots are used as simple count forms, or in a pronominal role, the nominal ending '''-e''' is added to them. They are therefore treated like a pronoun and declined according the case required by their syntactical role.
 
'''njuʂ-''' → '''njuʂ-''' + '''-e-''' → '''njuʂe'''
<small>seven</small>
 
Other numerals do not have indipendent roots. Their forms are built by combining quite freely the already existing roots. There are no fixed construction patterns, as it is noticeable from the different results in daughter languages.
 
The numerals for tens, hundreds and thousands can be built:
 
*With the numeral root + the nominal ending '''-e''', as an independent numeral form, NUM + '''-e''':

The numerals for ''(one) hundred'' and ''(one) thousand'' are forms on their own:

Numbers above the multiples of thousands have no name and are specified by the lesser numerals.
Numbers above the multiples of thousands have no name and are specified by the lesser numerals.


Composite numbers can be built:
Composite numbers are built by just putting them beside, without any conjunction, in descending order:
 
*''1985'': wiʔā́ tsṓjureñā́tu kuʔerephḗʔo pā́ge
*by just putting them beside, without any conjunction, in descending order:

Ordinal numerals are be built with the numeral root + the comparative suffix '''-is''' + the adjectival ending '''-i''', NUM + '''-is-''' + '''-i''':
 
'''ṫjes-''' + '''-is-''' + '''-i-''' → '''ṫjesisi'''
<small>one → first</small>


The first 10 ordinal numerals are:
All cardinal numerals are meant as invariable forms.


Ordinal numerals are formed by adding the adjectival ending -ko to the cardinal numeral form:

Numerals

The numeral system relies on a decimal base.

The first ten cardinal numbers are forms on their own:

digit
full form
1:
pɛ̄́m
2:
laz
3:
hū́d
4:
ɟā̀r
5:
šuʔ
6:
tū̀ŋ
7:
kī́r
8:
žḗr
9:
bɔp
10:
šū̀l

Numerals from 11 to 19 are built with the construction NUM + phḗʔo + na:

digit
full form
11:
šā́ʔophḗʔona
12:
ʔakiphḗʔona
13:
mikṓphḗʔona
14:
gṓwephḗʔona
15:
pā́gephḗʔona
16:
thū́waphḗʔona
17:
hašɑphḗʔona
18:
kuʔephḗʔona
19:
tsṓjuphḗʔona

The numerals for (one) hundred and (one) thousand are forms on their own:

digit
full form
100:
ñā́tu
1000:
wiʔā́

The numerals for the multiples of tens, hundreds and thousands are built with the construction NUM + re + phḗʔo/ñā́tu/wiʔā́:

tens
hundreds
thousands
2x:
ʔakirephḗʔo ʔakireñā́tu ʔakirewiʔā́
3x:
mikṓrephḗʔo mikṓreñā́tu mikṓrewiʔā́
4x:
gṓwerephḗʔo gṓwereñā́tu gṓwerewiʔā́
5x:
pā́gerephḗʔo pā́gereñā́tu pā́gerewiʔā́
6x:
thū́warephḗʔo thū́wareñā́tu thū́warewiʔā́
7x:
hašɑrephḗʔo hašɑreñā́tu hašɑrewiʔā́
8x:
kuʔerephḗʔo kuʔereñā́tu kuʔerewiʔā́
9x:
tsṓjurephḗʔo tsṓjureñā́tu tsṓjurewiʔā́

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:

  • 1985: wiʔā́ tsṓjureñā́tu kuʔerephḗʔo pā́ge

All cardinal numerals are meant as invariable forms.

Ordinal numerals are formed by adding the adjectival ending -ko to the cardinal numeral form:

digit
adjective form
1st:
šā́ʔoko
2nd:
ʔakiko
3rd:
mikṓko
4th:
gṓweko
5th:
pā́geko
6th:
thū́wako
7th:
hašɑko
8th:
kuʔeko
9th:
tsṓjuko
10th:
phḗʔoko

If the numeral form is composite, the ending is added only to the last numeral form:

  • 25th: ʔakirephḗʔo pā́geko
