The most general and inclusive name for numbers. It is used for numbers in mathematics.
When a number is used as a code for something, it is called a numara.
the symbols of numbers are called rakam. It is also used instead of the word "price" in some contexts.
In Turkish, when asking for the price, people sometimes say, What is our sin?(günahımız ne).
Rakım also means altitude above sea level.
Say- has two meanings, as a root, saymak: one meaning is to count, while the other is to address, classify or consider something as something else.
And, san- means "to suppose", implying thinking about something without certainty.
In Turkic languages where numbers are called "san", these two verbs have merged.
Additionally, the word "san" also means "what is said about something or someone." This applies to Turkish as well as Kazakh, Kyrgyz, Uzbek, Khakas, Tuvan, and others.
So, if we consider the two meanings of say-, it is possible that sayı evolved into san.
The words "say-" and "san-" are frequently used; these are verbs. San is also commonly used, but it has a more literary tone. The phrase "adı sanı ne?" (What is their name and reputation?) or "adı yok sanı yok" / "adı sanı yok" (They have no name, no reputation) is often used when talking about someone or something.
When we hear "numara" (number), the first thing that comes to mind is a phone number.
Turkey’s equivalent of 911 (USA) or 119 (Korea) is 112.
Our personal phone numbers follow this format: +90 (0)5xx-xxx-xxxx
We don’t read these numbers one by one. Three-digit numbers are read as hundreds. Four-digit numbers are read as two tens.
