Now, let's practice counting from 21 to 100 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'''.

* chāliīs (forty)
* pachās (fifty)
* sāṭh (sixty)
* sattāīs (seventy)

* nabbe (ninety)
* sau (one hundred)


== Counting Objects in Sindhi ==
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.


In addition to counting numbers, it's important to learn how to count objects in Sindhi. When counting objects, we use the plural form of the noun and attach the corresponding number. For example:
==== Common Questions ====


* "Two books" would be "biyā pustak".
1. '''How many...?'''
* "Five chairs" would be "pāñc kursiyan".


Let's practice counting objects in Sindhi:
* '''Sindhi''': ڪيترا ...؟ (Kitra ...?)


* aik pustak (one book)
* '''Example''': ڪيترا ڪتاب آھن؟ (Kitra kitaab aahein?) - How many books are there?
* do pustak (two books)
* tīn pustak (three books)
* chār pustak (four books)
* pāñc pustak (five books)


== Asking and Answering Questions about Numbers ==
2. '''What is your age?'''


Now that we have learned Sindhi numbers and how to count objects, let's move on to asking and answering questions about numbers. Here are some useful phrases and examples:
* '''Sindhi''': توھان جي عمر ڇا آهي؟ (Tuhanjay umar chha aahe?)


* "What is your phone number?" - "توهان جو فون نمبر ڇا آهي؟" (Tuhān̄ jo phōn nambar chā āhī?)
* '''Example''': توھان جي عمر 25 سال آهي. (Tuhanjay umar 25 saal aahe.) - Your age is 25 years.
* "My phone number is 123456789." - "منهنجو فون نمبر 123456789 آهي." (Manḥjō phōn nambar 123456789 āhī.)
* "How many siblings do you have?" - "توهان کيتينون ساهڻا ڇا آهن؟" (Tuhān̄ kētīnōn sāḥṇā chā āhēn?)
* "I have two siblings." - "منهنجي کانهن ساهڻين ٻيو آهن." (Manḥjī kānḥ sāḥṇīn bīyō āhēn.)


Practice asking and answering questions about numbers in Sindhi:
3. '''What time is it?'''


* "What is your age?"
* '''Sindhi''': وقت ڇا آهي؟ (Waqt chha aahe?)
* "My age is 25."
* "How many children do you have?"
* "I have three children."


== Cultural Insight ==
* '''Example''': وقت 3 وڳي آهي. (Waqt 3 waghay aahe.) - It is 3 o'clock.


Numbers hold cultural significance in Sindhi traditions and beliefs. In Sindhi culture, certain numbers are considered lucky or unlucky. For example, the number 7 is considered lucky and associated with prosperity and success. Many Sindhi families choose to perform important ceremonies or events on dates that include the number 7. On the other hand, the number 13 is considered unlucky and is often associated with bad luck and superstitions. It is common for buildings to skip the 13th floor or for people to avoid important decisions on the 13th day of the month.
4. '''How many days are left?'''


== Exercises ==
* '''Sindhi''': ڪيترا ڏينهن باقي آھن؟ (Kitra din baaqi aahein?)


Now, let's put your knowledge of Sindhi numbers and counting to the test with some exercises:
* '''Example''': ڪيترا ڏينهن باقي آھن؟ (Kitra din baaqi aahein?) - How many days are left?


1. Write the Sindhi words for the following numbers:
5. '''How much does this cost?'''

b) 68
c) 92


2. Count from 1 to 10 in Sindhi.
