12:54 Thank you for putting these in. So if I am understanding right, the difference between 11000 and 10001 is just that you would a little pause between "elfu kumi" and "na moja" to turn it into 10001?
@KawaidaSwahili English numbers used to be spoken the same way many years ago. Maybe 100 or 150 years ago. I have a request. When I lived in southwestern Tanzania, I used to have people in the marketplace count on their fingers in a very strange (to me) way. They would slide a finger of one hand through the fingers of another or split their fingers apart and shake them back and forth and I could never understand it or find someone to explain it clearly to me. If this is also done in Kenya, or if you are aware of this sort of counting, could you please do a demonstration of this method of finger counting? It is not just 1-10, but much higher numbers, and I suspect, also fractions.
