Fractional numerals
Fractional numerals are formed by adding the derivative ending -ŋuː to the cardinal numeral form, with the exceptions of the numeral one:
χaʂæ → χaʂæŋuː seven → seventh
If the numeral form is composite, the ending is added only to the last numeral form:
- 25th: ʔakirepʰeːʔo ṕaːŋeŋuː
There is, however, one irregular suppletive form:
| ḱuːpho |
Distributive numerals
Distributive numerals can be formed:
- by adding the adjectival ending -jeː to the cardinal numeral form:
mikoː → mikoːjeː three → three each
- by adding the comparative ending -rejeː to the cardinal numeral form:
ʈoːju → ʈoːjurejeː nine → nine each
If the numeral form is composite, the ending is added only to the last numeral form:
- 25: ʔakirepʰeːʔo ṕaːŋejeː
