Lentition in number word construction

[Lrrtoksì nìhawng]

I've been writing a lot of big numbers lately and it occurred to me that there seems to be a quirk in the lentition rules. Example:

4444 = tsìvozamtsìzamtsìvosìng, but you only get lentition on the last "tsìng".

Coming purely from a "mouth comfort" standpoint, wouldn't it seem more sensible to have lentition throughout the middle number prefixes too? I'm going by the existing charts and I can't find any canon usage of the crazy big numbers, but it seems kind of weird to only have lentition after the last "vo". How sure are we about this?

I've been obsessing over lentition lately because it's one of my weak points. Plus, tsìvozamsìzamsìvosìng just SOUNDS better.

I think we're pretty sure about how it works, here's why:

tsì before a "set" indicates how many of that thing there are.  Compare to pxeskxekeng three exercises.  The idea is the same.  You do not have pxe there going to pe, so you don't have tsì going to sì.

When the number is used as a remainder it's like everything that comes before it functions like a leniting prefix, hence their forms. 

Simple examples:  18 = mevomun.  Literally, two 8's + 2.
                        195 = pxezampey.  Literally, three 64's + 3

Got it! So if we go crazy big with:

507 (decimal) = kizamhivopey. Literally, seven 64's + seven 8's + 3.

I think that helped me figure out some unrelated grammar stuff too. Irayo! Part of me is really happy because that means I don't have to redo a bunch of worksheet templates. The other part that doesn't like spitting while talking is not so pleased.

I need to remember to write octal and decimal after everything now. 507 octal would mean something completely different.
