English Names for dozenal numbers (revised)

I talked about this before in a previous blog post, but since then, I changed some things.

Here is my system of naming numbers.

The System

1 through nine are, of coarse, the same, but X; is pronounced "ten", and E; is pronounced "el".

10; is pronounced "zen", rather than "doh".

I created a "zeen" system for 11;-1E;, similar to "teen"

11; is "onezeen"

12; is "twozeen"

13; is "threezeen"

14; is "fourzeen"

...

for 20;-90;, it uses the current decimal notation, except you replace "-ty" with "-zen", though it does have a few differences.

therefore

20; = "twenzen"

30; = "thirzen"

40; = "forzen"

50; = "fivzen"

60; = "sixzen"

70; = "sevzen"

80; = "eightzen"

90; = "ninezen"

X0; = "teenzen" (in Old English, 100 (decimal) was "teenty")

E0; = "elzen"

100; is called "one duna" (from TGM), instead of "one gross" because
1. Grosses aren't common
2. "duna" sounds better

*1,000 is "one trin" (from TGM)

TGM calls *10,000 "quedra", but my system calls it "zen trin", because it is structurally similar to the decimal "ten thousand".
*100,000 is "one duna trin".

*1,000,000 is "one dillion" (short for "dozenal million")

*1,000,000,000 is not "one billion", but "one bidillion" (well, because "billion" is decimal).

You can always generate new dillions using systematic dozenal nomenclature

Dozenal Places

Officially, you say it similar to decimal, so 0;01 is officially "one dunith".

The semicolon seperator is called a dosc (dozenal simicolon), so it would unofficially be "zero dosc O one" or "zero dosc zero one".

Comparison with decimal

So, lets say the number "1,234,567".

If read as a decimal value, it would be "one million, two hundred and thirty four thousand, five hundred and sixty seven".

If read using my dozenal English naming scheme, it would be "one dillion, two duna and thirzen-four trin, five duna, and sixzen-seven".

Youtube Dozenator (not yet complete)

What if your favourite websites displayed things in dozenal?

I will be working on this for all popular websites, but let's start with YouTube.

I was working on a userscript that changes Youtube's stats to base 12.

New Currency Subdivisions

I am predicting the world would switch to dozenal around the end of the 21st century.

By that time, it would be more practical to only have one division by 12 than 2 divisions, because money would not be worth as much

I will explain the coinages of the new dozenalized currencies:

United States Dollar

Like many other currencies, the subdivision by 12 for the US dollar is called the uncia

There will be denominations of 1 ("dime"), 3 ("quarter"), 4 ("third"), and 6 ("half") uncia

Pound Sterling

The subdivision by 12 for the Pound sterling is the new shilling (take note that the old shilling was 1/20 pound)

There will be denominations of 1, 2, and 6 shillings

Euro (If the EU still exists by the time, because I have doubts)

The subdivision by 12 would be called the Eruo uncia

There will be denominations of 1, 2, and 6 euro uncia

Symbols for Systematic Dozenal Nomenclature

I came up with a symbol system for the SDN metric prefixes:


(tandem (t) used as an example)

Number	Positive Power	Symbol	Negative Power	Symbol
1	unquatandem	ut	unciatandem	uct
2	biquatandem	bt	biciatandem	bct
3	triquatandem	tt	triciatandem	tct
4	quadquatandem	qt	quadciatandem	qct
5	pentquatandem	pt	pentciatandem	pct
6	hexquatandem	ht	hexciatandem	hct
7	septquatandem	st	septciatandem	sct
8	octquatandem	ot	octciatandem	oct
9	ennquatandem	et	ennciatandem	ect
X	decquatandem	dt	decciatandem	dct
E	levquatandem	lt	levciatandem	lct
10	unnilquatandem	unt	unnilciatandem	unct
11	unnunquatandem	uut	unnunciatandem	uuct
...
25	bipentquatandem	bpt	bipentciatandem	bpct

Distance units

Here is how long distances should be measured:

The problem is that a triciatandem is too short, but a quadciatandem is too long.

The solution is to use quadciatandems with one dozenal place

Doing this, it is actually pretty easy to estimate conversions from previous units, because:

1 km ≈ 0;2 qt (quadciatandem)
1 mi  ≈ 0;3 qt

People will round to the nearest 0;2 or 0;3 quadciatandems depending on the previous system.

However, speed limits should probably be in triciatandems per hour, because making it higher would reduce speeding.
