Apart from that, I really like Montreiano for its use of accents: they are nearly as much used as in French :) . And I'm not talking about the c-cedilla which is far more used then in French... > > Ordinals > > The ordinals are formed similarly to Spanish. 11th -12th were > regularized > with 13th -19th. > > 1st - primairo /primajro/ 11th - deçimoprimairo /Detsimoprimajro/ > 2nd - segundo /segunDo/ 12th - deçimosegundo /DetsimosegunDo/ > 3rd - terçairo /tertsajro/ 13th - deçimoterçairo /Detsimotertsairo/ > 4th - cuarto /kwarto/ 14th - deçimocuarto /Detsimokwarto/ > 5th - quinto /kinto/ 15th - deçimoquinto /Detsimokinto/ > 6th - seixto /sejSto/ 16th - deçimoseixto /DetsimosejSto/ > 7th - séptimo /septimo/ 17th - deçimoseptimo /Detsimoseptimo/ > 8th - octauo /octauwo/ 18th - deçimoctauo /Detsimoctauwo/ > 9th - noueno /noweno/ 19th - deçimonoueno /Detsimonoweno/ > 10th - déçimo /detsimo/ 20th - vigésimo /BiZesimo/ > > 30th - trigesimo /triZesimo/ > 40th - cuadragésimo /kwadraZesimo/ > 50th - quiñcuagésimo /kiNkwaZesimo/ > 60th - seixagésimo /sejSaZesimo/ > 70th - septuagésimo /septwaZesimo/ > 80th - octogésimo /octoZesimo/ > 90th - nonagésimo /nonaZesimo/ > 100th - çentésimo /tsentesimo/ > Those are much more Spanish-looking than the cardinals.

It's so much used in common speech (like "half" in English), that I would think even Montreiano speakers would have had a special word for that and not only have used the expression uno entre dos... > > Adjectives in -ario > > primary - primario > secondary -secundario > tertiary - terçiario > > in -au /aw/ > > decimal - deçimau > octal - octau > Nice :) . > > I hope the formatting doesnt get messed up. > It went well in my opinion :) .
