High Balinese Word

INDEPENDENT FORM OF NUMBERS

ENGLISH BALINESE INDONESIAN
one sa (Low), siki (High) satu
two dua (1), kalih (h) dua
three telu (1), tiga (b) tiga
four empat empat
five lima lima
six pitu nam
seven (e)narn tujuh
eight kutus delapan
nine sia sembilan
ten dasa. sepuluh

and bulan, 'month" (except as it is used for a lunar calendar month), Thus, one can say dua wai, or kutus wai, in Low Balinese, meaning "two days," or "eight days." One says pitu bulan, or sia bulan to mean "seven' months" or "nine months," if talking about months in general, as on the Gregorian calendar. But the independent form of the number cannot be used with the High Balinese word "day," rahina. Here, and with all other nouns, one must use the "dependent" form of the number.

DEPENDENT FORM OF NUMBERS

I a-; prefix to head word
2 duang (1); kalih (h)
3 telung (1); tigang (b)
4 petang
5 limang
6 nem
7 pitung
8 kutus (ulung)
9 sia (sangang)
10 dasa

One cannot say dua meter for "two meters," but rather, duang meter, "Three kilograms" is telung kilo, and so on. One of something is 'expressed by prefixing a to the word, as ameter, "one meter"; akilo, "one kilogram" Note that the dependent forms have High and Low words for the numbers 2 and 3 and that some of the dependent forms are the same a, 'he independent forms. With 8 and 9 there are. Two ways in which the dependent form may be expressed. Usually the first form is used for the number shown in the table only. "Eight meters" would be kutus meter, the form shown within parentheses is used for multiples thus 80 is ulung dasa and 9,000 is sangang tali.
There is yet another form of the numbers. The "reduplicative" form is used when the number follows the noun that it modifies

REDUPLICATIVE FORM OF NUMBERS

1 abesik
2 dadua (1), kakalih (h)
3 tetelu (0, tetiga (h)
4 patpat
5 lalima, lelima
6 nemnern
7 pepitu, papitu
8 akutus
9 asia
10 adasa
