Namari numerals

The Namari language, like Japanese, possesses two sets of numerals, one being native and the other borrowed from Chinese. However, unlike in Japanese, the native system is more commonly used.
Cardinal numerals
Where two forms are given, the top form is the nominative and the bottom is the short vocative. If the single form given is monomoraic, its vowel is lengthened in isolation.

The term すめ sume in the sense of "hundred million" is archaic. Historically, the values of ごうがしゃ gougasha and larger numerals varied, but since the 1919 reforms, they have been fixed to represent intervals of 10,000.
