Other comments: Bunun
has a decimal system.
There are two forms
of cardinal numbers from 1 to 10 in Isbukun Bunun.
The
first one is used in series counting and counting 1. mas-an suh(a)is saba; 2. tastulinuhus; 3. tastumas-an Note 1: The terms on the left of the slash (/) are used for non-human entities while those on the right for human ones. Note 2: Ordinal numbers are formed by adding tasmai- to the beginning of cardinal numbers, e.g. tasmaidusa ‘second’, tasmaisiva ‘nineth’, tasmaimas-anhantasa ‘eleventh’ etc. Note 3: The hyphen functions like the diaeresis in French (i.e. two dots over the letter, e.g. naive). It does not mark morpheme boundaries. |
