Ellao, subhumans d .org! It's been a while since I've made a thread on the beautiful language of Moggernese. Today, we will be learning a crucial element of being able to calculated the quantitative aspects of this world through Moggernese: numbers!
Let's start with the numbers 1 through 10
1 (one) - omn
2 (two) - tug
3 (three) - tree
4 (four) - sar
5 (five) - vife
6 (six) - xic
7 (seven) - shil
8 (eight) - uit
9 (nine) - gu
10 (ten) - dec
Once we get past ten, the number system will work in a fashion similar to the linguistic structure of Sinospheric languages. No more Indo-European language copes such as "muh eleven" or "muh quatre-vingt dix-sept" or any of that. Instead, Moggernese will use the following structure from numbers 11 to 99:
multiple of ten dec single-digit number.
For example, the number 74 would be structured as:
seven * ten + four,
resulting in:
shildecsar.
Using such a system would be much more efficient an systematized than having to remember idiomatic words/pronunciations for numbers.
Similar rules will apply for numbers in the hundreds, thousands, and millions. For reference:
hundred (100) - hond
thousand (1,000) - chan
ten thousand (10,000) - decchan
hundred thousand (100,000) - hondchan
million (1,000,000) - meele
billion (1,000,000,000) - beele
I still need to make words for trillion, quadrillion, quintillion and so on.
Furthermore, I'm still debating whether to encourage the use of hyphens to separate number fragments (kind of like how we would say "seven hundred and seventy-seven" as opposed to "sevenhundredseventyseven" in English). It might be funny to just leave numbers unhyphenated and create goofy Germanic language tier compound words. Take, for instance, the number 3,789,045,826, which would end up in Moggernese as:
treebeeleshilhonduitdecgumeelesardecvifechanuithondtugdecxic.
I'm leaning on using hyphens to help clarify the grouping syntax of the specific numbers making up the whole number, resulting in this case:
treebeele-shilhonduitdecgumeele-sardecvifechan-uithondtugdecxic.
Still pretty ugly though. Will have to work it out (maybe with your help).
Alternatively we could spare ourselves some time and effort and just type out 3,789,045,826 since people rarely even talk on this forum anyway. JFL.
Alas, i aem fint d'av dit pribraeesat huig tudae. Thank all of you who were willing to sit through this autistic torture session. Until then, shitposters.
