Numbers
Digits
Explanation
n = Normal / As Prefix / Mathematical / Legacy (Optional)
Digit List
0 = Cero / Zer / Noß
1 = Une / Une / Sigg
2 = Dön / Biy / Doin / Doné
3 = Tritt / Triy / Trin
4 = Qintt / Qadr / Qirin / Quintt
5 = Qit / Pent / Qinin
6 = Cix / Heks / Hekin
7 = Cise / Sepet / Setin / Onto
8 = Octo / Octen / Otin
9 = Nove / Noßre / Notin / Nyen
Usage
Normal
"Mo termelo une ronßoloto." -> I have one apple.
As Prefix
"To termeles biy-muss." -> You have two muscles (biceps).
Mathematical (Optional)
"Sigg et sigg leme doin." -> One and (plus) one is (equals) two.
Legacy
Used when writing ordinal numbers or numbers between 11-19.
For example;
1st, 2nd, 3rd != Unevo, Dönvo, Trittvo;
1st, 2nd, 3rd = Unevo, Donévo, Trittvo;
or;
11, 12, 13 != unter, dönter, trittter;
11, 12, 13 = unter, donéter, trittter;
Bigger Numbers
10 = Toc
11 = Unter
12 = Donter (Officially donéter)
13 = Tritter (Officially trittter)
14 = Quintter (Officially quinttter)
15 = Qiter (Officially qitter)
16 = Toc-Cix
17 = Toc-Onto
18 = Toc-Octo
19 = Toc-Nyen
20 = Dön-Toc
21 = Une Dön-Toc
22 = Dön Dön-Toc
23 = Tritt Dön-Toc
30 = Tritt-Toc
31 = Une Tritt-Toc
100 = Hunt
200 = Dön-Hunt
1000 = Thount
2119 = Toc-Nyen Hunt Dön-Thount
10^6 = Millint
10^9 = Mallint
10^12 = Trillint
10^15 = Qetrillint
10^18 = Qentillint
10^21 = Septillint
10^24 = Sexillint
10^27 = Oktillint
10^30 = Nonillint
10^33 = Desillint
Paranthesis
The Kœtetekian numerical system is so complicated that it needs paranthesis.
For example, paranthesis is needed stating the number "12001".
It's said as "Une (Dön Toc) Hunt" -> One (Two Ten)-Hundred -> One Twelve-Hundred -> Twelve-Hundred One -> Twelve Hundred and One
But without paranthesis, it would be:
"Une Dön Toc Hunt -> One Two Ten Hundred -> Hundred Ten One Two -> One-Hundred and Ten and One Two -> One Hundred and Eleven Twelve (There's no single number as "eleven twelve" [it only
exists as 2 numbers] but it's the most accurate translation of "Une Dön" that's a wrong Kœtetekian grammar, only written to create the thesis being that numbers with parts of them written
in paranthesis not being the same as them not being in paranthesis.)
( = Unen Parateset
) = Ceren Parateset

Making New Words
Since Kœtetekian is a small language, there should be a way to create new words. There's actually 2 ways:
By Existing Words
pond = minituréaqunmar (small water sea)
dinosaur = dinovta
Loch Ness Monster = minituréaqunmardinovta
By Non-Existing Words
1. Get a word from a Latin (French, Italian, Spanish, Romanian, Moldavian etc.) language -> universidad ("university" in Spanish)
2. Modify it a bit -> universtad
3. Make it satisfying for Kœtetekian grammar -> universtar
4. Congrats, new word! (go to a school with high importance -> universtar)
(This is an example, not an actual word in Kœtetekian)
