D'ni numerals were the base-25 counting system used by the D'ni, as seen in several of the computer games in the Myst franchise, particularly in Riven and Uru: Ages Beyond Myst, and also in Cyan's Myst novels.

Perhaps this version predates the systematic association between the letter-forms and the numerals, which might very well have led to the addition of a few forms (to fill in gaps) or a reassignment of values to make it easier to distingish similar forms based on their context.
Cyan& mode of rendering Dni into Roman letters varies somewhat according to the circumstances, but always based on an attempt to use conventions that are familiar from the representation of English sounds.
The purpose of this webpage is to provide a list of all of the words of the Language of Dni that have been published by Cyan, together with citation of the actual source of each item and some indication of the context.

The first syllable of these names correspond to the first syllable of Japanese numerals: Ichi, Ni, San,.
The hyphen was removed from "Japanese-American" to make "Japanese" an adjective to "American." A year earlier the JACL had emerged from several local organizations, such as: the American Loyalty Leagues in and around San Francisco, the Progressive Citizens Leagues in Seattle and Portland, and the Japanese American Citizens Association in Los Angeles.
The unhyphenated usage was implemented by the JACL to designate U.S. citizens of Japanese ancestry and meant not to include the first generation of Japanese-Americans who were born in Japan.

 Myst V: End of Ages: Noloben Glyphs and D'ni Numerals
Because of this 'right-turning' process, D'ni numerals actually consist of 25 separate symbols (including "0"), and it is only necessary to place two of those symbols side-by-side (as we usually to with "11", for example) in order to form numbers of 25 and above, which would usually only be a feature of base 25.

 The Periodic Table(Page 1)
In a revision of his table in 1871 he arranged some elements and proposed a table of eight columns, obtained by splitting each of the long periods into a period of seven elements, an eighth group containing the three central elements (such as Fe, Co, Ni), and a second period of seven elements.
The first and second periods of seven were later distinguished by use of the letters a and b attached to the group symbols, which are Roman numerals.
Mendeleev's table had the elements arranged by atomic weights with recurring properties in a periodic manner.

Japanese also possesses the equivalent of the English “1, 2, 3, 4, 5” (ichi, ni, san, shi, go) system which can also be used in lieu of the counter system.

 Simple Algebra Example in Nemeth
Another difference is that the number sign, called the Numeric Indicator (NI) when used before Nemeth numerals according to the Nemeth code, is not used before all numbers as in literary braille but only in most situations where a number is preceded by a space and also in certain special contexts.
The plus sign (dots 3-4-6) and minus sign (dots 3-6) are signs of operation in braille.
These signs must never be preceded or followed by a space even when a space is used in print.

 OHG PRIMER - CHAPTER 10
The cardinal numerals 4-12 remain uninflected when they stand before a noun, whereas, if they stand after a noun or are used as nouns, they are declined according to the i-declension.
Those adjectives whose uninflected form ends in -o preceded by a consonant usually develop an a (seldom e, o) between the consonant and the w in the inflected forms.
The uninflected form of strong verbs ends in -an, as ginoman, taken, giritan, ridden ; that of the weak verbs ends in -t, as gihabēt, had, gisalbōt, anointed.
