Pah drem,

It came to my attention that the most recent numbers thread was giving some confusing and conflicting information on just how numerals appear in Dovahzul.  I had thought that this was the current format for writing the numbers in Dovah runes, and wanted to provide a new thread that wasn't archived for discussion relating to the number system in Dovahzul.  I realize that numbers aren't a huge deal for the dovah, but I think it should be fairly obvious as to what we currently have set as the standard.

I also had an inquiry that has confused me since the number system isn't overly clear to begin with:  Is 10 written as ben or is it geino, or are they both "correct"?

Feel free to open this thread up to further numerical quandries.
