Such as base 20, 12, or 2 for example.

Here is a base 20 I know of:

1) Yan
2) Tan
3) Tethera
4) Pethera
5) Pimp
6) Sethera
7) Lethera
8) Hovera
9) Covera
10) Dik
11) Yan-a-dik
12) Tan-a-dik
13) Tethera-dik
14) Pethera-dik
15) Bumfit
16) Yan-a-bumfit
17) Tan-a-bumfit
18) Tethera-bumfit
19) Pethera-bumfit
20) Figgot

Sounds easy, right? tongue I know it by heart. wink

Base 12:

zero
one
two
three
four
five
six
seven
eight
nine
dek
el
do

And people have come up with a whole lot of stuff to replace all of out base 10 and others, even time.

Base 2:
Come on, you know binary, right? tongue

Discuss.

EDIT: 2200th post! big_smile

Different bases have the same names for numbers I thought.

Like this:

Base 4:
0
1
2
3
10
11
12
13
20
21
22
23
30
31
32
33

Erm, bases..?

littletonkslover · 2011-04-27 16:27:07

some of those dont sound very kid friendly lol

rdococ · 2011-04-27 17:59:10

Our numbersystem is like Base 10, so yes, I have counted in Base 10.
EDIT: What about Base 261?
zero
one
two
three
four
you know...
until... the ten...
zera!
ona
twa
thra
fora
fiva
sia
sevee
eigha
nina
zerza
The next ones would be ya, xa, etc.

One time I counted in 12, just to show off.
Then they were all like, "what?"
Then I hit them with Fibonacci

rdococ · 2011-04-27 18:16:25

I know, base 61, another one of my own bases.
all the original ones to 9...
Zee,
Olee,
Twee,
Foralee,
Fivalee,
Sixalee,
Sevalee,
Eighalee,
Ninallee,
ZeeAlee
ZeeBee
and so on.. but at 60 there's a twist:
...ZeeBeeBeeBeeBeeBeeSECRUL
"SECRUL" means second rule. tongue

AtomicBawm3 · 2011-04-27 18:22:49

Lol, this reminds me of Portal:

Glados: Do you think that messes me up? 2+@ is...(weird electric sound)...10! In base 4! I'm fine!

I don't actually try to count in them, but occasionally I attempt to see if other bases make certain numbers relate to each other.

MoreGamesNow · 2011-04-27 22:32:52

I once spent minutes being amazed at how high I could count on my fingers in binary code. Question: can you count in an irrational base?

Hmm...interesting question. I think bases are supposed to be whole numbers excluding 0...but then again you can have things in base e (2.781828...) which isn't irrational, but isn't a whole number. I guess you could do base pi or something, but it'd be terribly inconvient.

veggieman001 · 2011-04-27 22:47:44

zero

Harakou · 2011-04-27 22:52:36

I turned in my math homework in base 2 once.

That's original! I really should try that sometime...

If I did that it wouldn't be original. hmm

I've had to count in hexadecimal:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
A
B
C
D
E
F
11
12

ruggboy1 · 2011-04-28 01:42:18

Ufo (oo-foe)
Tufo (too-foe)
Trufo (troo-foe)
Tri (try)
Ufo-Tri
Tufo-Tri
Trufo-Tri
Tri-Tri
Ufo-Tri-Tri
Tufo-Tri-Tri
Trufo-Tri-Tri
Tri-Tri-Tri

And so on. The only Base 4 one I know, other than "1 2 3 10 11 etc.".

ruggboy1 · 2011-04-28 01:47:58

And another one: Base 6.

Twen
Fren
Twat
Quenn
Mastu
Mustarar
Must-Twee
Must-Free
Must-Tweet (yes, tweet)
Must-Quee
Must-Mast
Must-Mu
Must-Mu-Twee
And so on. After "Must-Mu-Mast", it would be "Must-Mu-Mu". Also mustarar is pronounced must-tar-rawr, must is, of course, must, and mu is moo.

A base is the base for counting; we use base ten generally. It goes up to 10 and then restarts at 1.

No, it goes to 10, then it adds on to the second number, and for each ten it adds to the first number.

The base number can change that "10" into it's base number. In base 12, for example, it could be this:
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
!
!"
until it gets to 10.

Yes, thank you for expressing it better than me. smile
