The Numbers in Nawat/ Los Numeros en Nawat de El Salvador

Credit to Héctor Josué Martínez Flores for capturing use of the word Shikipil (thousand) in Witzapan (Santo Domingo de Guzman).

In a conversation with Nantzin Sixta Perez, she mentioned that as a child she heard adults use the number “se almund” for twenty-five. Ume Almund would be 50, and yei almund would be 75. This expression is no longer used today.
