Difference between revisions of "User:Firesong/Alethi language"

Alethi is a base-10 language which makes use of positional notation. Numbers are constructed by using the full name of the first digit of a number, and then chaining suffixes for every other digit in the number. For example, the number "1173" is "Jesesabach", using Jes (1), -es (1), -ab (7), -ach (3). How the digit zero is handled in the spoken language is currently unclear.
