This is an overview of number systems in various Azirian languages.
Jarda
In Jarda, numbers can be represented in any base which is convenient, up to base 12.
- 1: ju [ju]
- 2: řal [ɻal]
- 3: đağ [ɟaɣ]
- 4: kun [kun]
- 5: raz [raz]
- 6: kóv [kov]
- 7: noś [nɔɕ]
- 8: řóm [ɻom]
- 9: kóř [koɻ]
- 10: jum [jum]
- 11: vaź [vaʑ]
- 12: źév [ʑev]
Jirra
The Jirra language is related to Lindiga. Compare these numbers with the corresponding Lindiga words:
- 1: swai [sʷai]
- 2: koči [kotʃi]
- 3: miči [mitʃi]
- 4: sirwi [siɾʷi]
- 5: ngwëswi [ŋwəzʷi]
- 6: issi [issʲi]
- 7: xasci [xasci]
- 8: kwasi [kʷazʲi]
- 9: ütti [ʉttʲi]
- 10: cië [ciə]
Lindiga
- 1: rsai [ʂɛi]
- 2: koti [kɔʧi]
- 3: miti [miʧi]
- 4: siři [ʃiɽi]
- 5: ngüorsi [ŋuəʐi]
- 6: issi [iʃʃi]
- 7: chaski [xaski]
- 8: pasi [paʒi]
- 9: ykki [ykki]
- 10: kie [kiə]
Lindiga is also the source for basic numbers in the Minza language: šei, koči, miči, širi, ňuoži, iši, xaski, paži, yki, kie.
Siralla
Siralla numbers use base 8:
- 1: ik [ik]
- 2: nar [nar]
- 3: gar [ɡar]
- 4: zek [zɛk]
- 5: chek [tʃɛk]
- 6: rev [rɛv]
- 7: yel [jɛl]
- 8: kemel [kɛmɛl]
Numbers after 8 add the suffix -mel: ikmel "nine", narmel "ten", etc.
Tirelat
Tirelat uses base 12.
- 1: lii [liː]
- 2: dłaa [dɮaː]
- 3: kim [kim]
- 4: reega [reːɡa]

- 2: zá [zá]
- 3: néri [néʐì]
- 4: ņa’i [ɲàʔì]
- 5: séða [séðà]
- 6: háka [hákà]

- 2: ti [ti]
- 3: fhei [hei]
- 4: nyy [nɨː]
- 5: šia [ʃia]
- 6: t'aša [tʼaʃa]
- 7: yša [ɨʃa]
- 8: zei [zei]
Zariva
The Zariva number system uses a combination of base 5 and base 7.
The numbers 1-7 are:
- 1: ai [ai]
- 2: ilai [ilai] ("twice one")
- 3: ith [iθ]
- 4: sai [sai]
- 5: min [min]
- 6: minda [minda] ("one more than 5")
- 7: thú [θuː]
Certain multiples of 5 and 7 have specific names:
- 10: hi [hi]
- 15: mist [mist]
- 25: ming [miŋ]
- 125: léshek [leːʃɛk]
- 15,625 (1252): agálik [aɡaːlik]
- 1,953,125 (1253): nuruthkest [nuruθkɛst]
- 49: thúsi [θuːsi]
The numbers from 1 to 125 use various combinations of 5 and 7 with the following affixes: an- (one less), adan- (two less), -ra (one more) -rad (two more), il- (twice), ith (3) and sai (4).
- 8: thúra [θuːra] (7+1)
- 9: anghi [aŋhi] (10-1)
- 10: hi [hi]
- 11: hina [hina] (10+1)
- 12: hinad [hinad] (10+2)
- 13: adammist [adammist] (15-2)
- 14: ilthu [ilθu] (2*7)
- 15: mist [mist]
- 16: mistra [mistra] (15+1)
- 17: mistrad [mistrad] (15+2)
- 18: mistith [mistiθ] (15+3)
- 19: mistsai [mistsai] (15+4)
- 20: mistmin [mistmin] (15+5)
- 21: ithú [iθuː] (3*7)
- 22: ithúra [iθuːra] (3*7+1)
- 23: adamming [adammiŋ] (25-2)
- 24: amming [ammiŋ] (25-1)
- 25: ming [miŋ]
- 26: mingna [miŋna] (25+1)
- 27: mingnad [miŋnad] (25+2)
- 28: saithú [saiθuː] (4*7)
- 29: saithúra [saiθuːra] (4*7+1)
- 30: ilmist [ilmist] (2*15)
- 31: ilmistra [ilmistra] (2*15+1)
- 32: mingthú [miŋθuː] (25+7)
- 33: mingthúra [miŋθuːra] (25+7+1)
- 34: amminthú [amminθuː] (5*7-1)
- 35: minthú [minθuː] (5*7)
- 36: minthúra [minθuːra] (5*7+1)
- 37: minthúrad [minθuːrad] (5*7+2)
- 38: mingadammist [miŋadammist] (25+15-2)
- 39: mingilthú [miŋilθuː] (25+2*7)
- 40: mingmist [miŋmist] (25+15)
- 41: mingmistra [miŋmistra] (25+15+1)
- 42: mindathú [mindaθuː] (6*7)
- 43: mindathúra [mindaθuːra] (6*7+1)
- 44: anithmist [aniθmist] (3*15-1)
- 45: ithmist [iθmist] (3*15)
- 46: ithmistra [iθmistra] (3*15+1)
- 47: adanthúsi [adanθuːsi] (7*7-2)
- 48: anthúsi [anθuːsi] (7*7-1)
- 49: thúsi [θuːsi] (7*7)
After 49, multiples of 7 are less frequently used, and it starts to look more like a base-5 system.
Zharranh
Zharranh uses a base 8 system. Numbers 1-8:
- 1: žar [ʒar]
- 2: kɭiĵu [kɭiʝu]
- 3: tiva [tiva]
- 4: ziđa [zid̪a]
- 5: niʈa [niʈa]
- 6: disa [disa]
- 7: krina [krina]
- 8: mimi [mimi]
Numbers 9-15 are formed by adding the prefix mi- to numbers 1-8 (e.g. nine is "mižar" and 10 is "mikɭiĵu").
