In this blog post I go over how numbers are named in Future English (my opinion) up to 1020.

Introduction
Back in 2017, I learned that in the far future, possibly some centuries to millennia from now, languages will be different, except Latin. So, I've decided to make this blog. Also, this is actually my timeline.

Let's start...

The First 20 Names
In 2101, Martian mathematician Charles Ranph discovered that the old names were getting too outdated. So, he decided to update the number names in English.

These are the first 10 names... The names en, od, tr, ter, pet *, and ect are clearly modifications of Greek enas, duo, treis, tessera, pente, and exi.
 * Decimal | Name
 * En
 * Od
 * Tr
 * Ter
 * Pet
 * Ect
 * Zet
 * Yot
 * Nev
 * Dak

Then, zet and yot are modifications of the SI prefixes for 1021 and 1024 respectively. Nev is a modification of Latin novem.

And, dak is also a modification of Greek deka.

Unlike Old English, where there were 3 pairs of same letter names, Future English only has 1 (tr and ter).

* Pet (Old English) has already changed to peet by some linguists in 2100.

These are the next dak names... The most notable feature is that 13-19 all end in -dak, just like with -teen in Old English. -Dak adds 10 to a number. Notice that 14, 15, 17, 18, and 19 have their basic equivalents' letters dropped and adding the -dak suffix.
 * Decimal | Name
 * 11 | Hend
 * 12 | Dok
 * 13 | Tradak
 * 14 | Tedak
 * 15 | Pedak
 * 16 | Exdak
 * 17 | Zedak
 * 18 | Yodak
 * 19 | Nedak
 * 20 | Iky

For example, by combining "ter" (drop the "r") with "dak", we get "tedak". So, "tedak" literally means ter and dak (4+10).

The same thing is with 13 and 16 except it's slightly altered as in...
 * Tra - dak
 * Ex - dak

In "exdak", "ect" is replaced with "ex". And, "tradak" has the a added to make it sound good.

The oddest names, like in Old English, are hend and dok. They don't have anything much to do with the other names. Some might wonder why they don't follow the dak pattern established through 13-19. Also, in 2101, some people use bases 5, 20, 60, and even 12 as bases, because they had 1 arm (base 5), 4 arms (base 20), 12 arms (base 60), and 6 fingers on both arms (base 12).

If you carefully look at the names for 11 and 12, you can see that they are roughly related to the (en+dak) and (od+dak) idea.

And finally, iky, meaning od groups of dak, is modified from Greek eikosi.

Combining Naming Components (21-100)
After 20, the names are not unique anymore, but instead combinations. For example, after iky (20), comes...

Iky-en (21), Iky-od (22), Iky-tr (23), Iky-ter (24), etc.

Each name from 21-29 is formed simply by saying iky, followed by the appropriate group of ens left over. Essentially you're saying 20+1, 20+2, 20+3, etc.

To properly continue past 29, you need to know the next groups of dak. Here is a chart below... -ky is a suffix which multiplies by dak. In this case, za-ky could be understood as "zet*dak".
 * Decimal | Name | Possible | Etymology
 * 30 | Traky | 3 of dak | Tra+ky
 * 40 | Teky | 4 of dak | Te+ky
 * 50 | Peky | 5 of dak | Pe+ky
 * 60 | Exaky | 6 of dak | Exa+ky
 * 70 | Zaky | 7 of dak | Ze+ky Za+ky
 * 80 | Yoky | 8 of dak | Yo+ky
 * 90 | Neky | 9 of dak | Ne+ky

Using the words for 1-9 and the naming components for groups of dak, it is now possible to name the numerals up to 99.

To name any 2-digit number, simply say the group of dak component (Digit 1) followed directly by the en component (Digit 2).

Ex.

When there is nothing left over, nux (zero) comes in handy, so simply say the group of dak alone... So, what comes after 99? 100 is given a unique name component, "hoted.
 * 3 8 --> Traky - yot
 * 6 2 --> Exaky - od
 * 7 0 --> Zaky

Unlike Old English, where hundred is also read as "a" or "one", in Future English, you just have to say "hoted".

The First Naming Block (1-9999)
We already have all the naming components necessary to name all the numerals up to 999.

To name a 3-digit number, first replace the h in hoted with the component letters, then the group of dak, and finally the group of en. These are the confirmed component letters... For example...
 * 2 - D/B
 * 3 - Tr
 * 4 - T
 * 5 - P
 * 6 - Ex
 * 7 - Z
 * 8 - Y
 * 9 - N
 * 10 - Dak, etc.
 * 5 8  3



V Unlike Old English, where you also have to say "and", Future English lacks this property, as you see above.
 * Poted exaky  yot

In case there's a nux in the daks position, say 304 as simply "troted ter".

What will come after 999 (noted neky nev)? Would "dakoted" be acceptable? Not really, so instead use "kaland".

When there are no units in the hoted position, like last time, don't insert "and". Ex. Unlike Old English, where commas seperate digits by threes, Future English does this by fours. The reason why is because Ranph discovers that a thousand has an odd number of zeroes. So he decided to give 1,0000 a name.
 * 1003 - Kaland tr
 * 1069 - Kaland exaky xen
 * 4096 - Taland neky ect

It is now possible to name the numerals up to 9999.

You might be wondering, what comes after 9999? That will be a myriand, named after myrio, the Ancient Greek word for 10,000.

After a myriand, naming falls into a regular pattern, which breaks up the name into blocks of 4 digits.

The 2nd Block & Beyond (1,0001-?????)
It is now possible to name the numerals up to 9999,9999. Ex. So how does en proceed then? What would 1,0000,0000 be?
 * 3,2768 - Tryriand daland zoted exaky yot
 * 26,2144 - Ikectyriand daland hoted teky ter
 * 100,0000 - Hotyriand (formerly million)
 * 1245,6789 - Kalbotecpetyriand exaland zoted yoky nev

Welcome to the 3rd block. The next word is mejad, literally great myriand. Now, it is clear to name the numerals up to 9999,9999,9999 at this point. Ex.
 * 10,0000,0000 - Dakejad (formerly billion)

The key to continuing is to know the next block denominations. Here is a chart below for that... In 2101, it will be feasible to count to a mejad. It will realistically take a century, and humans will be less mortal.
 * Decimal | Block | Name
 * 1,0000 | 2 | Myriand
 * 1,0000,0000 | 3 | Mejad
 * 1,0000,0000,0000 | 4 | Gijad
 * 1,0000,0000,0000,0000 | 5 | Astad
 * 1,0000,0000,0000,0000,0000 | 6 | Lunad

Keep in mind that in the sequence myriand, mejad, gijad, etc., each term is not 1000 times larger, but 1,0000 times.

For now, be content to counting to 9999, 9999 , 9999 , 9999 , 9999 , 9999 which is...
