The Hul'q'umi'num' numbers ten to nineteen are formed as follows.

	'apun	ten
	'apun 'i' kw' nuts'a'	eleven
	'apun 'i' kw' yuse'lu	twelve
	'apun 'i' kw' lhihw	thirteen
	'apun 'i' kw' xu'athun	fourteen
	'apun 'i' kw' lhq'etsus	fifteen
	'apun 'i' kw' t'xum	sixteen
	'apun 'i' kw' tth'a'kwus	seventeen
	'apun 'i' kw' te'tsus	eighteen
	'apun 'i' kw' toohw	nineteen

"Seventeen", for example, can be broken down as follows: 'apun ("ten") + 'i' ("and") + kw' ("a/the") + tth'a'kwus ("seven").

Kw' is an article and is used if you are just counting. If you are actually counting things which you can see, replace it with an appropriate article like tthu: 'Apun 'i' tthu tth'a'kwus "seventeen".

The higher numbers also work this way, as in the examples on the next pages.
