From la'pi two, many cases of wliich were given in the Dictionary, is 

 formed lapukni, abbr. lapuk both, which is inflected like other numerals. 



For the numerals from eleven to nineteen a shorter form exists besides 

 the four forms mentioned above ; it consists in omitting the number ten, 

 and the classifier appears to be sufficient proof that the number spoken of 

 is above ten, for numerals below ten never assume classifiers. Thus we 

 have : 



12 lap pd-ula, instead of: t/i-unepanta lap pd-ula; cf 40, 1. 

 18 ndankshapt yala, instead of: ta-unep pen ndanksapt yala.
