Numerals
The numeral system relies on a decimal base.
Cardinal numerals
The first ten cardinal numbers are noun-like forms on their own:
| ʂajqo | |
| qaki | |
| mikow | |
| wowhe | |
| çajwe | |
| ðujha | |
| ŕaʂä | |
| cuqe | |
| ʈobu | |
| βjeqo |
Numerals from 11 to 19 are built with the construction NUM + βjeqo + na:
| ʂajqoβjeqona | |
| qakiβjeqona | |
| mikowβjeqona | |
| wowheβjeqona | |
| çajweβjeqona | |
| ðujhaβjeqona | |
| ŕaʂäβjeqona | |
| cuqeβjeqona | |
| ʈobuβjeqona |
The numerals for (one) hundred and (one) thousand are noun-like forms on their own:
| ɳajśu | |
| hiqaj |
The numerals for the multiples of tens, hundreds and thousands are built with the construction NUM + βjeqośu / ɳajśuśu / hiqajśu:
| qakiβjeqośu | qakiɳajśuśu | qakihiqajśu | |
| mikowβjeqośu | mikowɳajśuśu | mikowhiqajśu | |
| wowheβjeqośu | wowheɳajśuśu | wowhehiqajśu | |
| çajweβjeqośu | çajweɳajśuśu | çajwehiqajśu | |
| ðujhaβjeqośu | ðujhaɳajśuśu | ðujhahiqajśu | |
| ŕaʂäβjeqośu | ŕaʂäɳajśuśu | ŕaʂähiqajśu | |
| cuqeβjeqośu | cuqeɳajśuśu | cuqehiqajśu | |
| ʈobuβjeqośu | ʈobuɳajśuśu | ʈobuhiqajśu |
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: hiqaj ʈobuɳajśuśu cuqeβjeqośu çajwe
All cardinal numerals are meant as invariable forms.
Ordinal numerals
Ordinal numerals are formed by adding the adjectival ending -ko to the cardinal numeral form:
| ʂajqoko | |
| qakiko | |
| mikowko | |
| wowheko | |
| çajweko | |
| ðujhako | |
| ŕaʂäko | |
| cuqeko | |
| ʈobuko | |
| βjeqoko | |
| ʂajqoβjeqonako | |
| qakiβjeqonako | |
| qakiβjeqośuko | |
| ðujhaβjeqośuko | |
| mikowɳajśuśuko | |
| ʈobuhiqajśuko |
If the numeral form is composite, the ending is added only to the last numeral form:
- 25th: qakiβjeqośu çajweko
Fractional numerals
Fractional numerals are formed by adding the derivative ending -wuj to the cardinal numeral form, with the exceptions of the numeral one, an irregular suppletive form, and some other irregularities:
| - | |
| cujβo | |
| mikowuj | |
| wowhewuj | |
| çajwewuj | |
| ðujhawuj | |
| ŕaʂäwuj | |
| cuqewuj | |
| ʈobuwuj | |
| βjeqowuj | |
| ʂajqoβjeqonawuj | |
| qakiβjeqonawuj | |
| qakiβjeqośuwuj | |
| ðujhaβjeqośuwuj | |
| mikowɳajśuśuwuj | |
| ʈobuhiqajśuwuj |
If the numeral form is composite, the ending is added only to the last numeral form:
- 25: qakiβjeqośu çajwewuj
Distributive numerals
Distributive numerals are formed by adding the derivative ending -jḗ to the cardinal numeral form:
| šā́ʔojḗ | |
| ʔakijḗ | |
| mikṓjḗ | |
| gṓwejḗ | |
| pā́gejḗ | |
| thū́wajḗ | |
| hašɑjḗ | |
| kuʔejḗ | |
| tsṓjujḗ | |
| phḗʔojḗ | |
| šā́ʔophḗʔonajḗ | |
| ʔakiphḗʔonajḗ | |
| ʔakirephḗʔojḗ | |
| thū́warephḗʔojḗ | |
| mikṓreñā́tujḗ | |
| tsṓjurewiʔā́jḗ |
If the numeral form is composite, the ending is added only to the last numeral form:
- 25: ʔakirephḗʔo pā́gejḗ
Multiplier numerals
Multiplier numerals are formed by adding the derivative ending -renɑ to the cardinal numeral form:
| šā́ʔorenɑ | |
| ʔakirenɑ | |
| mikṓrenɑ | |
| gṓwerenɑ | |
| pā́gerenɑ | |
| thū́warenɑ | |
| hašɑrenɑ | |
| kuʔerenɑ | |
| tsṓjurenɑ | |
| phḗʔorenɑ | |
| šā́ʔophḗʔonarenɑ | |
| ʔakiphḗʔonarenɑ | |
| ʔakirephḗʔorenɑ | |
| thū́warephḗʔorenɑ | |
| mikṓreñā́turenɑ | |
| tsṓjurewiʔā́renɑ |
If the numeral form is composite, the ending is added only to the last numeral form:
- 25: ʔakirephḗʔo pā́gerenɑ
