..... LOGI
Above right you can see the numbers 1 -> 11 displayed. Notice that the forms of 7 and 9 have been simplified (also 1 and 6 in a minor way).
In the bottom right you can see 7 interesting symbols. These are used to extend the range of the LIMBAWA number system (remember the basic system only covers 1-> 1727). Their meanings are given in the table below.
| elephant | huŋgu |
| rhino | nàin |
| water buffalo | wúa |
| circle | omba |
| hare | yanfa |
| beetle | ela |
| bacterium, bug | ʔiwetu |
To give you an idea of how they are used, I have given you a very big number below.
O.K. this number has a ridiculous dynamic range. But this is only for demonstation purposes : if you can handle this number you can handle any number. Remember the number is in base 12.
