 Decimal and traditional Gaelic counting systems: The numbers in this game are in the form of the decimal Gaelic counting system, now taught in Gaelic-medium education.
Traditionally, counting in Gaelic was based on sets of twenty. Forty would therefore be "dà fhichead" (two twenties), thirty "deich ar fhichead" (Lit. ten on twenty) and so on. You will hear both systems being used by Gaelic speakers so it is helpful to recognise both. To find out more about the traditional counting system, visit the Beag air Bheag Gaelic learning site at bbc.co.uk/beagairbheag and select section 8.
