Numbers in Toaq have special behavior when chaining. For example, heı gu means “▯ are twelve in number”, not “▯ are ten in number and are two in number”.

In base 10, natural numbers less than 1,000 are written like ([digit] fue) ([digit] heı) ([digit]), where digits followed by a power of 10 can be left out if they are 1.
For higher numbers, [number less than 1,000] [power of 1,000] multiplies the number by the power of 1,000. These [number]–[power of 1,000] groupings can be concatenated together in descending order to add them.
Any part that is 0 can be left out.
For example, 123,001,050 can be written (shı) fue gu heı saq mega (shı) bıq fe heı.
Number components
Number components are a proposal that makes numbers their own part of speech, rather than predicates. Numbers are written as single words without spaces, like fueguheısaq rather than fue gu heı saq, so that they can be converted to predicates using prefixes.
The following prefixes can turn numbers into predicates.
- ne-: turns a natural number N into the verb “▯ are N in number”
- ko-: turns a natural number N into the verb “▯ is Nth in sequence ▯”
There are also prefixes that can modify the numbers themselves.
- jem-: approximately N
- nho-: precisely N
- ze-: negative N
