Usage notes
The numbers единъ (edinŭ), дъва (dŭva), триѥ (trije), четꙑре (četyre) work as adjectives and must thus be in the same case and number as the word they are attached to, even if it's another number (as an example, съто (sŭto) means hundred, whereas дъвѣ сътѣ (dŭvě sŭtě) means two hundred, with сътѣ (sŭtě) being the dual form). All other numbers, instead, behave as substantives and are followed by the genitive plural: as an example, пѧть сътъ (pętĭ sŭtŭ, “five hundred”) uses сътъ (sŭtŭ), the genitive plural of съто (sŭto).
