    Cardinal: ๐’Œ (umin)

Etymology

[edit]

Almost certainly an additive compound of ๐’Š (iโ‚‚ /โ iโ /, โ€œfiveโ€) +‎ ๐’ˆซ (min, โ€œtwoโ€). Now mostly read umin. The /u/ in umin is due to analogy with the initial sound of ๐’ (ussu, โ€œeight, 8โ€). The form umum is due to vowel harmony.

Alternative forms of
/umin/
๐’… (iminโ‚‚, umunโ‚ˆ)

Numeral

[edit]

๐’Œ โ€ข (imin /umin/ or transliteration needed /umun/)
