* Some cultures use a dot as the decimal point, and a comma or a space as the thousands seperator. Other cultures use the comma as the decimal point, and a dot or a space as the thousands seperator. {ki'o} is always the thousands seperator, and {pi} is always the decimal point (or the radix point in other number bases).
***Spaniel
***Terrier

**chickens? - jipci(i don't understand this stuff)
 
;ma'u bridi cu cusku: "a positive number of predications is expressed"
 
====  Notes ====
 
None.
 
====  Issues ====
 
* Needs definition for more than one appearance of "ma'u" and "ni'u"
 
===  cmavo: ni'u (PA3) ===
 
====  Proposed Definition ====
 
;Negative sign: (together with other digits) this number is negative.

====  Proposed Tag ====
 
====  See Also ====
 
* {ma'u}

* negative
* negative sign
 
* negative number
 
====  Usage Examples ====

====  Notes ====
 
None.
 
====  Issues ====
 
* See issues of {ma'u}
 
===  cmavo: ''pi'' (PA3) ===
 
====  Proposed Definition ====
 
;Radix point: partitions a number into an integral part (to the left of the point) and fractional part (to the right of the point)
 
====  Proposed Tag ====
 
====  See Also ====
 
* {ki'o}
* {pi'e}
 
====  Proposed Keywords ====
 
* Radix point
* Decimal point (when used in a base-10 number)
 
====  Usage Examples ====
 
;li no pi mu: 0.5
 
;li vai pi rei ju'u vai: 0xF.E
 
====  Notes ====
 
* See notes for {ki'o}.
 
====  Issues ====
 
None.
 
===  cmavo: pi'e (PA3) ===
 
====  Proposed Definition ====
 
;Compound base separator: partitions a number into parts of different bases
 
====  Proposed Tag ====
 
====  See Also ====
 
* {pi}
* {ju'u}
 
====  Proposed Keywords ====
 
* dot (chapter/section seperator)
* slash (date seperator)
 
* dash (date seperator)

====  Usage Examples ====
 
;li no pi'e bi pi'e pare cu tcika la'e di'u li renopano pi'e bi pi'e xa: "It happened at 00:08:12 on 2010-08-06"
 
;zo pi'e cu se pilno le pabi pi'e pano moi terfendi: "the word "pi'e" is used in Section 18.10"
 
====  Notes ====
 
* The bases and meanings of each part depend on context. Arithmetics on compound-base numbers is also defined by context.
 
* Each digit for bases larger than 16 can be expressed using more than one PA, which are then delimited by {pi'e}.
 
====  Issues ====
 
None.
 
===  cmavo: ra'e (PA3) ===
 
====  Proposed Definition ====
 
;Repeating decimal: digits to the right repeat indefinitely
 
====  Proposed Tag ====
 
====  See Also ====
 
* {fi'u}
 
====  Proposed Keywords ====
 
* repeating
 
====  Usage Examples ====
 
;li pa fi'u ci du li pi ra'e ci: "1/3 equals 0.(3)"
 
;li ze fi'u pare du li pi mu bi ra'e ci: "7/12 equals 0.58(3)"
 
;li pa fi'u ze du li pi ra'e pavorebimuze: "1/7 equals 0.(142857)"
 
====  Notes ====
 
* Should only be used in the fractional part
 
====  Issues ====
 
* Needs definition when there is no digit to the right.
* I suggest {ra'e} without digits to the right to simply indicate that the number's fractional part is infinite. Example: li pai du li ci pi pavopaxa ra'e -- ksion
