Similarly, '''tweno/-nu/-na''' = 29o/29u/29a, '''thiwo/-wu/-wa''' = 31o/31u/31a, etc. The abbreviations are '''twe-''', '''thi-''', '''fo-''', '''fi-''' and '''si-'''.

Unfortunately seventy can't become se- because that already means 17-exponent (see [[#Exponents]] below). Setho means 13<sup>17</sup>-over, so it can't mean 73-over. So starting at 71, one might use the longer form: 71o is seventy-wo, 73o is seventy-tho, etc. 103o is hundred-tho and 113o is one-ten-tho. Or one might use these terms:

Note that 23/16 = 628¢ is a 5th, not a 4th. Furthermore 31/16 = 1145¢ is a 7th not an 8ve, and 37/32 = 251¢ is a 3rd not a 2nd. For any prime P, the degree of the ratio P/1 is chosen to minimize negative intervals. It is determined by its 8ve-reduced cents, and how it relates to 12edo:
