Numbers

Napkožæc uses a number system based on 10. Each number inflects according to the gender of the object(s) being counted. For example, "three days" would be "twra ðêcên" (because "day" is of common gender); "three gnats" would be "twran mnôz" (because "gnat" is of masculine gender); and "three flowers" would be "twril pluž" (because "flower" is of feminine gender).

Notes:

• To form numbers between 10 and 20, take ten (dêkžt), followed by the second digit (usually with a hyphen in-between).
• To form numbers between 19 and 100, take the first digit, with the suffix "-ê"; followed by ten; followed by the second digit.
• To form numbers greater than 99, use the above technique (for forming numbers between 19 and 100); preceded by "x-nêza ê" (x being the first digit), which means so many and...
• To form numbers in the thousands, simply add "x-mae ê" for 1000's; "x-mêrtêaz ê" for 10,000; "x-næ-næ ê" for 100,000's.
