Talk:9 (old)

Your conlang has a very nice start to it, especially considering that your a beginner.

I have an idea for your number system, I noticed all of your single digit numbers end in -o, so you could alternate that vowel to create higher powers like sanskrit mathematicians used. So

fo-11 fi-11 dozen fu-11 gross and so on

Ah, talent. :(

But that font is amazing. How did you get it? Vivaporius: "I don't need a slogan" 00:45, March 18, 2013 (UTC)

@Greatbuddha

Thanks. I've previously read some articles about explicit number names and how they help children understand numbers better (as Chinese uses), and I think I'll stick with that. Also, using a system based on Āryabhaṭa numerals would lead to a lot of homonyms.

The main reason I changed the font in the first place is because it's hard to see the underline under the characters with a short width and the <-lili> suffix looked bunched up. The fixed-width font is also helpful in lining up glosses to sample sentences.

As your language draws some traces from Japonic languages, I'm curious. Are /tʃi/ and/or /tɕi/ allophones of /ti/?
