<p>One thing I want to add that I found in my book by William H. Bennett<br>
is "...du usqiman all barne und twa jere habando" from the Gospel of<br>
Matthew I believe (having trouble finding it in any of my Gothic Bible<br>
sites, yet here it is in my book...). To me this looks like "... to<br>
kill all of children up to two of years having." This is why I asked<br>
earlier if it was possible to express age with "I have X (of) years. <br>

declination of numerals. 1, 2 and 3 are declinable in all cases and<br>
genders. 4 - 15 usually remain uninflected, but in some parts of the<br>
text they appear inflected (following i-declension with Dat. in -im<br>
and Gen. in -e). For tens, 20-90, the structure is 'numeral from 2 to<br>
9' + 'tigjus' (which is Nom. Pl. of 'tigus', "decade"). If you have to<br>
decline a ten, you decline 'tigus' in the needed case ('tuguns' is<br>
Acc. Pl. and 'tigiwe' is Gen. Pl.) according to the verb (wisan or<br>
haban). The first numeral is declined in Masc. and the same case as<br>
'tigus' (if 2 or 3, since 4 - 9 are undeclinable)<wbr>, as deducted from<br>
Luke 3:23 (I don't know if other rules apply).<br>
