How does it work?

It depends on the following rules:

• Digits from zero to nine are specific words, namely sifir 0, yek 1, du/didu 2, sê/sisê 3, çar 4, pênc 5, şeş 6, heft 7, heşt 8, and neh 9.
• Numbers from eleven to nineteen are made by setting the unit digit root before the word for ten (deh), with no space: yanzdeh/yazde(h) 11, dwanzdeh 12, sêzdeh 13, çardeh 14, panzdeh/pazdeh 15, şanzdeh/şazdeh 16, hivdeh 17, hijdeh 18, and nozdeh 19.
• The tens have specific names based on the multipliers digits roots, except for ten and twenty: deh 10, bîst 20, sî 30, çil 40, pêncî 50, şêst 60, heftê 70, heştê 80, and nod 90.
• The hundreds are built by telling the multiplier digit, then the word for hundred (sed), with no space (e.g.: pêncsed 500, şeşsed 600).
• The thousands are built by telling the multiplier digit, then the word for thousand (hezar), with an exception for five thousand (e.g.: çar hezar 4,000, pênj hezar 5,000, şeş hezar 6,000).
• Compound numbers are built by spelling out the ten, then the digit, united with the word û (e.g.: sî û du 32, heftê û yek 71). The rule is the same between hundred and ten or unit, and between thousand and hundred (e.g.: sed û yek 101, hezar û dused 1,200).
• There are also specific words for one hundred thousand (lek 100,000), and five hundred thousands (kirûr 500,000).
• One million is milyon.
• From one milyon to less than one billion works the same way as thousands (the 5's rule included)
• One billion is milyar
• More than 1 billion will be spelled a number by number
• The same rules applies for the Sorani version Most of these rules are from: Of Languages and Numbers
