nogendice : nineteen
The Illunse word for nineteen is nogendice. Nogendice is a nearly unique word.
This word is a mixture of the Old English word for nineteen which is nigontĂene, and the Latin word for nineteen which is undeviginti.
Like eighteen, I'm fudging a bit to make this word. My Illunse words are supposed to contain only letters found in the Old English and the Latin words. I'm missing a c to make nogendice. That the Latin word for nineteen is undeviginti, one less than twenty, complicated things for me. My Illunse word, like the Old English word, is similar to nine and ten.
