Numbers precede the noun being counted. '''Yn''' causes feminine nouns to soften; '''dew''', '''trui''' and '''sei''' cause following nouns to undergo spirant mutation; other numbers come before nouns without causing mutation. When the noun following '''dew''' and '''trui''' is a feminine collective of a masculine noun (see above under nouns) then the noun undergoes soft mutation rather than spirant mutation. | |||
Before a noun '''cinc''', '''gweint''' and '''cent''' become '''cin''', '''gwein''' and '''cen'''. The noun being counted is always singular. | |||
Big numbers are put before nouns in two different ways: | |||
'''yn of e ghindig''', ''sixteen men'' | |||
'''yn e ghindig di llo hof''', ''sixteen (of the) men'' | |||
Ordinal numbers exist for one to ten: | |||

In shorthand these are reduced to the number and the last two letters of the ordinal spelling. | |||
`Once, twice, three times' are made with using the cardinal number with the noun '''gweg''': '''yn weg''', '''dew weg''', '''trui weg''', '''cathr gweg'''. | |||
