Oops! On the very moment I pushed the Send-button, I realized I made a terrible
mistake.
--- I wrote, much too hastily:
> Hattic: "sum ha sum sõs zuf"
, thereby completely forgetting that Hattic has a dual!
Did I spend so much time, hard work and painful efforts only to forget about it
in critical moments? Therefore, "1+1=2" ought to be: "Sum ha sum adaf zuf".
When there are more than two numbers involved, it will be a normal plural:
"Hedre cha bãh cha sem sõs sfeazã" (4+5+7=16)
