Ordinal numerals

Ordinal numerals can be formed:

• by adding the adjectival ending -ko to the cardinal numeral form:

ʂaːʔo → ʂaːʔoko
one → first

• by adding the comparative ending -roː to the cardinal numeral form:

tʰuːɬa → tʰuːɬaroː
six → sixth

• by adding the comparative ending -tu to the cardinal numeral form:

ŋoːɬe → ŋoːɬetu
four → fourth

• by adding the comparative ending -lo to the cardinal numeral form:

ḱuʔe → ḱuʔelo
eight → eighth

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

• 25^th: ʔakirepʰeːʔo ṕaːŋeko
