| == Number System ==
| |
| | |
| The Laevanaak number system is base 6, base 12 and base 24 at the same type. The numbers 12 and 6 or lower have their own symbols and are just written with those. Numbers from 7 to 11 and sometimes 12 are written with 6 in the first place and the needed number from 1 to 6 in the second place. numbers from 13 to 23 and sometimes 24 are written similarly with 12 in the first place and the needed number from 1 to 12 in the second place. For numbers higher than that an apostrophe like symbol is needed. In the first place there is any number, after that is the apostrophe like symbol followed by the number symbol for 12 and any number from 1 to 23. It is read as the first number times 24 plus the last number.
