I am wondering about our proficiency in handling figures in our languages so, I would like us to challenge each other in this field. Let me start. 7,809 Igbo - Puku asaa, nari asato na iteghete/itolu.  111 Igbo - otu nari, iri na otu  Pleas feel free to interprete in your own language and drop figures you would love interpreted by others. The list is endless.

9001 - Puku iteghete na otu
1982 - Otu puku, nari iteghete, iri asato na abuo
2008 - Puku abuo na asato
419 - Nari ano, iri na iteghete
all in Igbo

Do I believe in re-incarnation?
As a christian, NO, I don't.
The traditional Igbo man believes in re-incarnation though.

I asked that question because your grip on the language is uncommon in this generation; as if you came from generations before us. Well done my man  Ok, 210,563,776,841
Ijeri nari abuo na iri, Nde nari ise, iri isii na ato, Puku nari assa, iri asaa na isii, nari asato, iri ano na otu
You are correct but the 'nari' in the billion, million and thousand should come first. See what I mean below: Nari ijeri abuo na iri, nari nde ise na iri isii na ato, nari puku asaa na iri asaa na isii, nari asato, iri ano na otu. You are a great man. I am really challenged. Kudos
