| Kapampangan | Tagalog | English |
|---|---|---|
| Metungpending review | Isa | OneCebuano and Waray 'usa' is a false friend of the highest order: in Tagalog 'usa' is a deer. |
| Adwapending review | Dalawa | Two |
| Atlupending review | Tatlo | Three |
| Apatpending review | Apat | Four |
| Limapending review | Lima | FiveThe one numeral that survives intact across all eight — and in Pangasinan 'lima' is also the word for 'hand', which is where the numeral came from in the first place. |
| Anampending review | Anim | Six |
| Pitupending review | Pito | Seven |
| Walupending review | Walo | Eight |
| Siyampending review | Siyam | Nine |
| Apulupending review | Sampu | TenPangasinan numerals carry a counting suffix -ra that none of the others use, so 'limara' and 'samplora' look longer than their neighbours for a structural reason rather than a phonetic one. |
| Labing metungpending review | Labing-isa | ElevenThree different strategies for building teens: Tagalog and Kapampangan prefix labing-, the Visayan languages say 'ten and one', and Bikol has a dedicated form (kagsaro). |
| Labingadwapending review | Labindalawa | Twelve |
| Adwangpulupending review | Dalawampu | TwentyCebuano and Hiligaynon 'kaluhaan' bears no visible relation to their own word for two, duha. Waray's 'karuhaan' shows the same form after its regular l→r shift. |
| Atlungpulupending review | Tatlumpu | Thirty |
| Limangpulupending review | Limampu | Fifty |
| Dinalanpending review | Isang daan | One hundredKapampangan 'dinalan' and Pangasinan 'sanlasus' share nothing with the gatos/daan the rest use — another reminder that the Luzon languages are not a group. |
| Libupending review | Isang libo | One thousand |
