Numbers are used in our everyday lives for many purposes, from counting money to measuring time. In this lesson, you will learn how to count and use numbers in Sindhi. We will cover Sindhi numbers from 1 to 100 and how to ask and answer questions about numbers.
=== Introduction to Sindhi Numbers ===


== Sindhi Numbers ==
Numbers play a crucial role in our lives. They help us tell time, manage finances, and quantify our experiences. In Sindhi, numbers not only serve functional purposes but also connect us to the culture and traditions of the Sindhi-speaking community. Understanding how to use numbers enhances your ability to communicate effectively and opens up new avenues for interaction.


Sindhi numbers are written in the Arabic script from right to left, just like the Sindhi language. The first thirty numbers have unique names, while larger numbers are formed by adding suffixes to the base numbers.
=== Counting from 1 to 100 ===


Below is a table showing the numbers 1-10 and their corresponding names in Sindhi, pronunciation, and English translation.  
Let’s start our exploration by learning how to count from 1 to 100 in Sindhi. Below is a table that illustrates the numbers along with their pronunciation and English translations.

== Counting in Sindhi ==
Now that you have a solid foundation in counting, let’s move on to the next essential skill: '''asking and answering questions about numbers'''.
 
=== Asking and Answering Questions about Numbers ===
 
In any language, the ability to ask questions is as vital as knowing how to respond. Below, we’ll explore common questions related to numbers, along with the appropriate answers. This will enable you to engage with native Sindhi speakers in a meaningful way.
 
==== Common Questions ====
 
1. '''How many...?'''


Counting objects in Sindhi is as simple as stating the number and adding the noun in question. The word for "thing" or "object" in Sindhi is شيئر (shayir). For example:
* '''Sindhi''': ڪيترا ...؟ (Kitra ...?)


* اڪ شيئر (ak shayir) - One thing
* '''Example''': ڪيترا ڪتاب آھن؟ (Kitra kitaab aahein?) - How many books are there?
* چار شيئر (chaar shayir) - Four things
* ترتيب پنھنجہ شيئرن (tartīb pandhsuch shayirun) - Arrangement of fifteen things


For numbers larger than 10, we use the word گرو for "group". For example:
2. '''What is your age?'''


* ٿيس گرو dilrī (thēs grō dilrī) - Thirty hearts
* '''Sindhi''': توھان جي عمر ڇا آهي؟ (Tuhanjay umar chha aahe?)
* پنڍس گرو بستي (pandhs grō bastī) - Fifty villages


When counting money, the word "rupee" in Sindhi is روپيو (rupiyo). To state the cost of an item, we use the phrase بهتي سڃيت (bahti sacchit) meaning "fair price". For example:
* '''Example''': توھان جي عمر 25 سال آهي. (Tuhanjay umar 25 saal aahe.) - Your age is 25 years.


* سڌڻي جوتو اڏهون روپيو بهتي سڃيت (sindhī jūto udhun rupiyo bahti sacchit) - A pair of Sindh shoes for 1,500 rupees, a fair price
3. '''What time is it?'''


== Asking and Answering Questions about Numbers ==
* '''Sindhi''': وقت ڇا آهي؟ (Waqt chha aahe?)


To ask "how many?" in Sindhi, we use the phrase ڪتي (kiti). For example:
* '''Example''': وقت 3 وڳي آهي. (Waqt 3 waghay aahe.) - It is 3 o'clock.


* ڪتي ڏهاترهوو هندوستان ۾ انسان آهن؟ (kiti datharhuvi hindustan mein insan aahin?) - How many people are there in India?
4. '''How many days are left?'''


To answer such a question, the word for "there are" in Sindhi is وارو (wāro). We add the number and the noun we are counting in the form of شيئر (shayir) or گرو (grō).
* '''Sindhi''': ڪيترا ڏينهن باقي آھن؟ (Kitra din baaqi aahein?)


For example:
* '''Example''': ڪيترا ڏينهن باقي آھن؟ (Kitra din baaqi aahein?) - How many days are left?


* هندوستان ۾ ده لڳ گرو شهر آهن (hindustan mein dah lakh grō shahr aahin) - There are ten lakh (one million) cities in India
5. '''How much does this cost?'''


When stating time in Sindhi, we use the 24-hour clock format. The word for "o'clock" in Sindhi is بجي (baji). For example:
* '''Sindhi''': ان جي قيمت ڇا آهي؟ (In ji qimath chha aahe?)


* ڏس جي بجي وقت آهي (dass ji baji waqat aahi) - It is ten o'clock.
* '''Example''': ان جي قيمت 500 روپيا آهي. (In ji qimath 500 rupiya aahe.) - It costs 500 rupees.


== Conclusion ==
===== Responding to Questions =====


In this lesson, we covered Sindhi numbers from 1 to 100, counting in Sindhi, and how to ask and answer questions about numbers. As you continue to practice your Sindhi language skills, it is essential to become familiar with numbers, as they are used in various situations. Remember to practice counting objects, shopping, and asking and answering questions involving numbers to improve your Sindhi language skills.
Here are some sample responses to the questions above:
 
1. '''Response to "How many...?"'''
 
* '''Answer''': 5 ڪتاب آھن. (5 kitaab aahein.) - There are 5 books.
 
2. '''Response to "What is your age?"'''
 
* '''Answer''': مون جي عمر 30 سال آهي. (Munjay umar 30 saal aahe.) - My age is 30 years.
 
3. '''Response to "What time is it?"'''
 
* '''Answer''': وقت 2 وڳي آهي. (Waqt 2 waghay aahe.) - It is 2 o'clock.
 
4. '''Response to "How many days are left?"'''
 
* '''Answer''': 10 ڏينهن باقي آھن. (10 din baaqi aahein.) - There are 10 days left.
