====== Numbers ======

There are two ways to count up to a hundred, or bar, which in decimal is 64. Either one can count in lots of 8s, or in lots of 16s. This is an old standing problem that is due to how the system LONG ago was in base 60 and effectively a dozenal system, but having fallen into desuetude for a power of 2 sort of numeric system, different things counted are better off with a short cycle or a long cycle.

On top of that, the language evolved, AND FORKED. FORKED! Leaving us with effectively 6 different ways to say 77. Great.

The main distinction between the short and the long count is that numbers go higher using the same prefix (None, Bi-, Ku-, and Pla-) for the long count, while the short count updates the prefix at each tens (None, Bi-, Le-, Ku-, Ban-, Pla-. and Nir-).
