I've read a bit in Mandarin and its sisters but I never got as far as
numerals; mostly stopped at the Wikipedia page!
+Sebastian, I'd really, *really^99,* love to see a paper about that
research. I've been fascinated with SW-H until they left me no evidence it
could exist... If the research is 'that' positive, I might take out a few
old projects from my safe!

+.arpis. , So that's a 'go-for-it' recommendation?

PS. I'm sorry for late replies, those I've made and those yet to come, but
my connection is quite unstable >.<
