Javanese numerals


The Javanese language has a decimal numeral system with distinct words for the 'tweens' from 21 to 29, called likuran.
The basic numerals 1–10 have independent and combining forms, the latter derived via a suffix -ng. The combining forms are used to form the tens, hundreds, thousands, and millions. The numerals 1–5 and 10 have distinct high-register and low register forms. The halus forms are listed below in italics.
Like English, Javanese has compound forms for the teens; however, it also has a series of compound 'tweens', 21–29. The teens are based on a root -las, the tweens on -likur, and the tens are formed by the combining forms. Hyphens are not used in the orthography, but have been added to the table below to clarify their derivation.
Final orthographic -a tends to in many dialects, as does any preceding a.
