Gindaaswinag : Numbers (in Anishnaabe)

aaniish mnik wi = how much is that
miinwaa = and

sample question :

"niizh (2) miinwaa niiwin (4) aaniish mnik wi ?" translates to "2 and 4 how much is that ?"..... the answer would be ngodwaaswi (6)

0=gaa gegoo
1= bezhig
2=niizh
3=nswi
4=niiwin
5=naanan
6=ngodwaaswi
7=niizhwaaswi
8=nshwaaswi
9=zhaangswi
10=mdaaswi

20=niizhtana
30=nsimdana
40=niimdana
50=naanmidna
60=ngodwaasmidna
70=niizhwaasmidna
80=nshwaasmidna
90=zhaangsimdana

100=ngodwaak
200=niizhwaak
300=nswaak
400=niiwaak
500=naanwaak

1000=mdaaswaak

For numbers in between each of the multiples of ten you can build the Anishnaabe number by using the word "shi" in between each number. Some examples....

15 = 10+5=mdaaswi-shi-naanan
77 = 70+7=niizhwaasmidna-shi-niizhwaaswi
123 = 100+20+3=ngodwaak-shi-niizhtana-shi-nswi
1234= 1000+200+30+4=mdaaswak-shi-niizhwaak-shi-nsimdana-shi-niiwin
