This week we will be looking at Klamath numbers.
1. one=nas
2. two=lap
3. three=ndan
4. four=wonip
5. five=tonip
6. six=nacksept
7. seven=lapksept
8. eight=ndanksept
9. nine=nacqeks
10. ten=tewnip
The numbers from 11-19 have a different pattern that is used in many numbers after 20 so it must be learned. The number for 10-tewnip-occurs in every number from here on out.
11. tewnip ant nas=11
12. tewnip ant lap=12
13. tewnip ant ndan=13
14. tewnip ant wonip=14
15. tewnip ant tonip=15
16. tewnip ant nacksept=16
17. tewnip ant lapksept=17
18. tewnip ant ndanksept=18
19. tewnip ant nacqeks=19
20. tewnipni lap=20
Here the pattern changes again with the suffix -ni on tewnip meaning Times. We will pick up here tomorrow.
