There are two sets of numbers in Taiwanese: the literary style (''peh'', usually used to recite numbers 0 through 9 on the telephone) and the colloquial style (''buun'', usually used to count objects). The colloquial readings come from Ancient Han Chinese/Old Chinese ([[Kor Harnguo]]) (ca. 0 BCE/CE), whereas the literary readings come from Han Chinese during the Southern [[Sorngtiaau|Song Dynasty]] (1127-1279) ([[Kixntai Harnguo]]). | There are two sets of numbers ([[sorji]]) in Taiwanese: the literary style (''peh'', usually used to recite numbers 0 through 9 on the telephone) and the colloquial style (''buun'', usually used to count objects).
