Grammar of Counting
Adaptation of the Number to the Counted Noun
Numbers are unchangeable.
Adaptation of the Counted Noun to the Number
Number 1 is followed by the noun in nominative singular, 2 and higher by the noun in nominative plural.
Comments on the Grammar
Flexion is done by suffixes. Regular plural of neutral words ending in "-a", "-ya", "-va" is formed by omission of the ending, "-Ø".
