- Short: Convert Arabic numerals to many languages
- Author: Scott Deerwester, ported by Stefan Haubenthal
- Uploader: haubi@geocities.com (Stefan Haubenthal)
- Type: misc/math
-
- This version of number was inspired from the standard
- version in /usr/games, but with a big difference: It
- knows how to count in a *lot* of languages, and can
- be taught almost anything that it doesn't already know.
- The information on how to count in a given language
- is given in a grammar, written in a meta-language described
- a little later. Grammars exist, as of this moment, for:
-
- Cantonese French Japanese Spanish
- Chinese (Mandarin) Gaellic (Irish) Malinke Susu
- English German Pular Vietnamese
- Esperanto Italian Romanian Dutch (Flemish)
- Bavarian Roman Russian Polish
- Mongolian Latin
