Kashmiri counting: 1 to 50

A simple list of Kashmiri (Koshur) numbers from one to fifty, written in Roman letters so beginners can read them easily. Numbers are grouped by tens to make them easier to remember.

Roman spellings can differ between books and regions, so you may see these numbers written in other ways. We are reviewing the forms with native speakers and plan to add Perso-Arabic script and audio.

A small tip

Once you know the tens, dah (10), wuh (20), trih (30), tsatji (40), and pantsah (50), the numbers in between become easier. Many follow patterns built from the ones and the tens.
