Hello everyone, in this lesson we will see how to write numerals in different languages and writing systems. Feel free to complete this wiki page if you think it can be improved.

Text[edit | edit source]

Eurasian[edit | edit source]

This type of numeral systems are called “Hindu-Arabic”, originated from India in the 6th-7th century. Each note represents a value in a place. Its advantage is combining the positional system and decimal numeral system, which suits the decimal representation and ability to represent large numbers. It also doesn't require memorisation of many notes.

Visit Punctuation of many languages to see decimal separators and digit grouping symbols.

In this type of numeral systems, each note represents a value. The largest value is written first, second largest next, and so on. Multipliers added to some notes also exist in some systems.
