'''Time''': Yela, the year of Grundet, consists of 378 haloxoh divided into nine theykoh each of which has seven uonartho. One uonarte (week) has six haloxoh. Halox on the other hand consists of 36 partoh which has 36 awaroh made up of 36 otuho (having 36 orotho rarely used). This means that a haloxoh has wawikram otuho ji wawjakta orotho. About seventy-one otuho equal forty Earth-seconds so that one Grundet-halox lasts approximately 23 Earth-hours. | |||
