Numbers In Ramnuny



I asked myself how numbers were created, every number has a name, but they're usually written in scripts and, their names aren't practical to read . Numbers were the letters of the math as we build a word with them in math, so couldn’t letters correspond to a number? They did actually, in gematria or abjad you can look at your names numerical value, although, today hebrew and arabic uses numbers that don't correspond to letters, why? Cause it made calculations very hard.
I didn’t totally copy this method of calculation cause of this, I wanna tell you how to make numbers for a conlang (you don’t need to learn though, you’re so wise ), and tell my fictional language.
I selected this subject for my second post cause it’s so easy. The numbers in ramnuny only have names for numbers from 0 to 9 but, also each of this 10 number has a letter corresponding to it, as we write a 2/3/4/5… digit number with them just like we write in western math
0: Şiin: שׂין à SH
1: yaHad  יחדà Y
2: θarain   תּריןà B
3: θalaθah   תּלתּהà J
4: ’arbiEahארוּעה  àD
5: Xamisahגּמשה  àh (soft)
6:sittahשתה  à w
7:sabEahשוּעה  àz
8: θamaniah תּמניה àH (hard)
9: θisEahתּשעה  àT (hard)
So what is the reason of using this method? I can say 100 by saying yaşaş  ישׂשׂ (yşş: y is 1, ş is 0) and because you don’t write vowels, you can connect them with a vowel in speech. In calculations such as addition it is much easier
Yaş ישׂ 10. Ya’  ייּ11. Yab  יוּ 12…..
