LESSON VII.
Numerals.
29. The cardinal numbers in Malay are:
| satu or s-, one. | anam, six. |
| dua, two. | tujoh, seven. |
| tiga, three. | dlapan, eight. |
| ampat, four. | smbilan, nine. |
| lima, five. | s-puloh, ten. |
These may either precede or follow the noun.
30. The addition of blas to the numerals from one to nine forms those from eleven to nineteen, as: s-blas, dua-blas, etc. up to smbilan-blas.
31. Multiples of ten are formed similarly by the addition of puloh, as: s-puloh, dua-puloh, etc., up to smbilan-puloh.
32. The units satu to smbilan are placed after the tens to form the intermediate numbers above twenty, as: dua-puloh-satu, dua-puloh-dua, etc.
