This is nothing to do with grammar....

You how you try to dictate a number over the phone and the other person can't get the right digits? Well,try saying the digits in Kiswahili,or your mother tongue; your partner will get them right the first time.
Nothing is real unless it can be named; nothing has value unless it can be sold; money is worthless unless you spend it.

I would go with the sheng one 'miaye' how about that?eg: mshi wa miaye,moti ya miaye na burungo za miaye.

All that starts well,ends well.

@Wendz ... learn the numbers one to nine THEIR mother tongue and use it...
