[edit] Building Numbers
As in English, D'ni digits are listed from lowest place on the right to highest place on the left. Each place is a high power of 25.
| Place | D'ni number | D'ni suffix |
|---|---|---|
| 25's place (251) | 10[?] | -see (-sE[?]) |
| 625's place (252) | 100[?] | -rah (-ra[?]) |
| 15,625's place (253) | 1000[?] | -len (-len[?]) |
| 390,625's place (254) | 10000[?] | -mel (-mel[?]) |
| 9,765,625's place (255) | 100000[?] | -blo (-blo[?]) |
D'ni uses suffixes to indicate the digit's place. For example 26 is [?], pronounced fahseefah (fasEfa[?]).
