To count the size of a set, "{{w|cardinal numbers}}" are used. In this case, we use the colloquial system together with a [[lioxngsuu|classifier]] (the classifier will [[tone sandhi|change tone]] when spoken). For example, ''{{tts|cidtaai [[tiexnsi]]}}'' (one television), or ''[[Cidboea Hii]]'' (one fish). | |||
For numbers greater than ten, {{x|id}} and {{x|ji}} from the literary set (see below) are used in the lower positions. For example, 220 is ''nngxpahji'' and 1,100 is ''cidzheng'id''. | For numbers greater than ten, ''{{x|id}}'' and ''{{x|ji}}'' from the literary set (see below) are used in the lower positions.
