Forming Number Words

It is a simple matter to form a word for a figure by selecting the sounds which represent the digits and fill in vowels until the word is found.

14 is represented by the sounds T-R. Between the consonants T and R run the vowels a, e, i, o, u. Do this by sound and the result is TaR, TeaR, TiRe, ToR (tore), TuR (tour). In this way you have three or four words which will represent the number 14.

15 can be converted into TaiL, TiLe, TeLl, or TooL.

41 into the words RaT, RaTe, wRiTe, RooT, RuT.

91 into the words PaT, PeT, PiT, PoT, PuT.

Make yourself thoroughly familiar with the Number Code. Master the ten digit sounds and you have the foundation with which to work. This is not a difficult problem. Children learn without difficulty the 26 letters of the alphabet and their many combinations. In this case there are but ten to be mastered and many combinations to choose from. A little practice will work wonders in the ability to use this Code. Change the following words into their figure value:

PaN................ JaR................ NoTe...............
RaiN............... CoaL............... TaN................
KiTe............... PiLe............... MoP................
RaKe............... PoP................ JaiL...............
LaP................ TaNK............... PaiL...............
LeTTeR............. PiNK............... PeaR...............

Note the following translation of numbers into words. Do the last sets yourself, make others for practice in this idea:

38 M F MuFf.
92 P N PaN.
63 J M JaM.
142 T R N TuRN.
315 M T L ............
415 ............ ............
912 ............ ............
951 ............ ............
421 ............ ............

Add the necessary vowels to make these into words:

82 F N 921 P NT 327 M NK
21 N T 627 J NK 9521 PL NT
48 R F 295 N PPL 91420 P T RNS

Make complete words for the following:

29.............. 97.............. 57..............
470.............. 742.............. 515..............
