I don't think there is a problem with the similarities of the numers: I want
them to end by the same letter to form similar cardinal numbers and have
only one vowel. Maybe you think I should add a final vowel? or another
different syllabe before each?

And I don't understand what you mean by the fact of the tel number "ko ko ko
ko ko ko ko" because it's the same thing that "two two two two two two two"
Sereval numbers repeated will always be repetitive: it's the definition of
repeat!

I tought about the possibility of cut the last "o" of the word that are not
at the end of the number

9   po
10 koko
11 kok ko
12 kok no

20 nono
21 non ko
22 non no

It can helps and it removes the useless vowels.
