eightonethree — 3/1 (FH,JH,BF,/RJ,)

• I will only propose number words with one syllable, making the above a lot easier to understand. —FH
  • I disagree since short words are easier to misunderstand. ~RJ
  • Hopefully my proposal avoids this problem. I generated a set of phonologically-redundant words using this algorithm, tweaking the input file so its output overlapped as much as possible with Fenhl and MalfermitaKodo's proposals. --Jim Henry 15:52, 26 October 2010 (PDT)
  • It would still cause issues with large and exact numbers. Namely when there are more numbers than the average person can hold in short-term memory. ~RJ

How to mark hex numbers

• I certainly do not want Naeso speakers to have to guess on whether a number is dec or hex. How do we avoid this? —FH
