Well done. But some questions--
1. Apparently "c" is [ts] /__i, but [c] elsewhere (?), at least /__o (ouco
'8'). Therefore, why is 100 "cint" given as [cint] not [tsint]? Typo?

2. The n in "cinci" '5' is pronounced. But apparently not in
'50'..."ci_n_quinta" [tsi_kwinta] ? Another typo?

3. Every decade has "-inta", but not "70" "sitina"-- any reason?

It's true, I have the mentality of a file-clerk, and yes, I know,
consistency is the hobgoblin of small minds :-)))))))))))))))
