| 1,000,000 | hanzumzum |
Given the special nature of numbers, they are not regarded as modifiers in Ceqli, hence, they are not separated by 'sa', but by 'si'.
(Like “sa,” “si” can be written alone, or appended to the preceding word.)
| Ceqli | English |
|---|---|
| han si jini | One woman |
| kwar si gayr | Four dogs |
There are other words that behave like numerals:
| ze | More than |
| Sli | At least |
| Besli | At most |
| Su | Enough |
| Go ten zepalsi hon. | I have more than eight books. |
| Go ten zehansi gayr. | I have more than one dog. |
The 'si' can be left out when no confusion would result.
When no other number word appears after 'ze,' the default is 'han.' Hence 'ze' is the plural marker.
| hansi dom | One house |
| han dom | One house |
| zesi dom | Houses |
| ze dom | Houses |
Ordinal numbers are formed by adding 'zem' to the numerals.
| hanzemsa jini pa kom hanzemsa pom. | The first woman ate the first apple. |
Or, without the "sa":
| hanzem jini pa kom hanzem pom. | The first woman ate the first apple. |
When not separated by 'si,' numbers can form compounds with non-numbers.
| bayn | Leg |
| Jino ten hansi bayn. | The man has one leg. |
| hanbayn | A single leg |
| hanbaynjin | A one-legged person |
| hanbaynba | A one-legged one |
| kwarbaynba | Quadruped |
'Si' also separates any quantifier, not just the numbers and words mentioned above.
| Go ten dolarsi karn. | I have a dollar's worth of meat. |
| Zi pa bwa staynsi biru. | You drank a mug of beer. |
