Lakota Concept of Zero

[Jonathan Holmes]

I was curious if anyone is aware of a Lakota term for the numeric concept of "0" (zero). Most Lakota/English dictionaries I have read give numeric terms beginning with "1" (one), and do not have "0" (zero) listed.
   
  While I know of the Lakota terms such as...
   
  wanji'ni = none
  takuni = nothing
   
  ...is this the same as "0" (zero)?
   
  Just wondering,
  Jonathan
