Grammar focus

Tens in Arabic (20, 30, 40, etc.) follow a regular pattern with the '-un' suffix. Compound numbers (21, 35, etc.) are expressed with the unit first, then 'wa' (and), then the ten: 'wahid wa ishrun' (one and twenty = 21). 'Mi'a' (hundred) and 'alf' (thousand) are used for larger numbers.
