One to ten is: tʼááłáʼí [1], naaki [2], tááʼ [3], dį́į́ʼ [4], ashdlaʼ [5], hastą́ą́ [6], tsostsʼid [7], tseebíí[8], náhástʼéí [9], and neeznáá [10]

After ten use the suffix -tsʼáadah (plus ten). So eleven to 19 is :

łáʼtsʼáadah [11], naakitsʼáadah [12], táátsʼáadah [13], dį́į́ʼtsʼáadah [14], ashdlaʼáadah [15] (the suffix loses its initial tsʼ becoming -áadah when added to five, ashdlaʼ), hastą́ʼáadah [16], tsostsʼidtsʼáadah [17], tseebíítsʼáadah [18], and náhástʼéítsʼáadah [19].

After that add the suffix -diin (times ten) to the matching digit. Sos twenty is naadiin.

The word hundred (neeznádiin) is formed the same way as the tens, i.e. by adding the multiplicative suffix -diin(times 10) to ten itself.

One thousand is borrowed from Spanish mil. Thousands are formed the same way as hundreds: tʼááłáhádí mííl [1,000], naakidi mííl [2,000]

Million is (mííltsoh) and is made by adding -tsoh (big) to mííl.
