COUNTING IN YOUR CONSTRUCTED LANGUAGES, CONSTRUCTED DIALECTS

Substantial postings about constructed languages and constructed worlds in general. Good place to mention your own or evaluate someone else's. Put quick questions in C&C Quickies instead.

I already sent this first one to you, Janko, but I'm also including a few others I've worked on.

Nióruais
[ɲoːrwɪʃ]
More: show
A Goidelic Celtic language with significant Norse influence. It is quite different from its parent Irish because of Niórua's near-1000 year independence from the Celtic Empire.

0. nóeg [ˈnoːɣ]
1. caén [ˈken]
2. biár [ˈvɑr]
3. drí [ˈðɾiː]

5. cúnn [ˈkuːŋ]
6. siús [ˈʃus]
7. seoct [ˈʃaukt]
8. áct [ˈɑːkt]
9. naon [ˈniːn]
10. dhioch [ˈzɪk͡x]
Fionlioch
[fɪnlɪk]
More: show
Another Goidelic Celtic language, this one is even less intelligible with Irish due to Fionlain's history of its Irish nobility marrying into native Permic tribes.

0. niol [nɪl]
1. sciom [sgɪm]
2. kjáis [kjɑːɕ]
3. trén [trɛːn]

7. stós [stoːs]
8. óc [oːk]
9. múc [muːk]
10. scúnjè [skuːnjə]
Spáinnioch
[spˠɑnʲɪk͡x]
More: show
Yet another Goidelic Celtic language, this one is much closer to its parent Irish than the other two are; this is Italian to Irish's Latin while the other two are far more distant. There is some slight influence from Portuguese.

0. miodun [mʲɪdˠʌnˠ]
1. gaim [gæmʲ]
2. yá [jaː]

8. úcu [uːku]
9. ním [nʲiːm]
10. dóce [dʲoːsʲe]
Курпашыҧур/Kurpašüppur
[ˌkuːrpaˈʃɯːpʰur]
More: show
AKA Carpathian; an Oghur Turkic language (or at least a humble attempt at one) descended from Turkic Avar that has been significantly influenced by Polish and Greek. I'll put the Cyrillic spellings first and then the Romanizations, followed by the IPA.

Seems to be the time for Celtic-inspired languages...Have one based on Gaulish:

Brigantian
1 oinos /ˈoi̯nos/
2 douo /ˈdowo/
3 trī /ˈtriː/
4 petuares /ˈpɛtwarɪs/
5 pemne /ˈpɛmnɪ/
6 sueχs /ˈswɛxs/
7 seχtan /ˈsɛxtan/
8 oχtū /ˈoxtuː/
9 naman /ˈnaman/
10 decan /ˈdɛkan/

If it looks virtually identical to Gaulish except for vowel-quality and pemne vs. pempe...it is meant to be pretty conservative (more of a "Late Gaulish" really), but the more interesting changes also don't show up in this sample.

Here are the base-12 numbers in the Tuulian languages. High and Low Tuolic are two dialects of the same language; Tuulunic is a more distant relation. Low Tuolic has two number systems, the second a base-10 system borrowed from Brigantian and used chiefly in commerce.

Okay, this is for Caascis. I've actually worked it out fairly far (mostly because numbers interest me - and because I have important numbers in my stories.)

It's base seven, as you can probably work out.
More: show
1. hi
2. ti
3. ci
4. seci
5. eci
6. teci
7. ha
8. ha ehia
9. ha etia

12. ha eecia

Thank you for Caascis.numbers. Could you please tell me for pronounciation some letters: c in ci (as English c in church?), cia (ch + a?), sci (shi?)
My collection numbers from languages and dialects changes incenssantly.
Today 21.1.2014 my collection includes: I have data for numbers from 21518 ways (both languages. conlangs and natlangs, their dialects, subdialects,... additional versions.

Caascis has very regular orthography.

c = /k/ (I know, I know, I should have used a k, but I will always think c is aesthetically more pleasing than k - and I used k as the phoneme /‖/ anyway.)
i = /i/
t = /t/
a = /ɑ/
e = /ɛ/
s = /s/
h = /h/
q = /!/ (that is, an alveolar or post-alveolar click)

(those should be the only phonemes required for numbers - please let me know if I forgot one.)

In the most respected dialect, vowels never form diphthongs - they are separated by a glottal stop. So ti ahae is pronounced [ti ɑhɑˈʔɛ]. When two vowels appear together, the second vowel is stressed. Otherwise, the second syllable is stressed.

In answer to your specific question - ci is pronounced /ki/, *cia would be pronouned /kiˈʔa/, and *sci would be pronounced /ski/, although /sk/ cannot start a syllable and will only be found when a syllable ending in /s/ is immediately followed by a syllable beginning in /k/ as in Caascis, /kɑ.ˈʔɑs.kis/

@Janko, both of the languages I provided don't really have words for 9 and 10 because both count in base-8 rather than base-10. That is not to say, however, that one cannot say that 9 or 10 of things exist. So, here they are, for your list: Emp: ŋawo tsá tawo (9) and ŋawo tsá sí (10)
Shtasa: tabdhïnhabtab (9) and tabdhïnhabshi

Universal lang
1: wan [ wan ]
2: du [ du ]
3: tri [ tri ]
4: kwadro [ kwadro ]
5: punto [ punto ]
6: sep [ sep ]
7: seven [ seven ]
8: okto [ okto ]
9: nayn [ najn ]
10: detsi [ detsi ]

'Universal lang' is quite phonetical, by default decimal system. I also thought about hexadecimal system which is more logical and used as extension of math and computer logic.
