Konalkepota: Counting
Counting is in base 8. My conspecies has four toes, and eight fingers on each foot and hand respectively. (They are humanoid in shape.)Each number is represented by a vowel, either h(0)(oi), a(1)(ah), e(2)(eh), i(3)(ee), o(4)(oh), (5)(oo), w(6)(ou), or y(7)(ai). Whereas our counting has three places before the comma, my constructed language has only two numbers (vowels) before their divider (consonant) [There must always be an end divider]. The dividers read, from right to left, as "s", "b", "t", "p", "v" (There shouldn't need to be more than that. If there is a reason, I'll figure out what to put for further dividers.)
Because the species writes from Right to Left, their counting would seem strange to us. For instance, 16,302 is spelled as two (and zero) "s" three and six "b" one (and zero) "t". It is written as: ehsiwbaht (eh-ois-ee-ou-bah-oit) and can be simplified as: esiwbat (eh-see-ou-baht).
