<p>don't feel like the main counting system is good enough, huh?</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
that's okay. i'll give you the forbidden knowledge of a more advanced
|
|
counting system.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
(but be aware that this is not intended to be used very much. in most
|
|
cases, vague amounts will also get the message across.)

<div class="box box-top">
|
|
<p>this counting system uses 5 words:</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
wan - one<br />
|
|
tu - two<br />
|
|
luka - five<br /> mute - twenty <br /> ale - one hundred
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
this counting system is additive, meaning you chain together the words
|
|
to create bigger numbers
|
|
</p>
|
|
<div class="quote">
|

<p class="sentence">luka luka tu</p>

as you can see, it's still not very convenient for big numbers - this is

the point!
