Built as 40 − 5

How 35 is built in Yorùbá

àárùndínlógójì is àrún (5) taken away from ogójì (40): 40 − 5 = 35. The "dín" in the word means "less".
ogójì (40) is 2 twenties: 2 × 20.
Yorùbá counts down from the next ten for any number ending in 5 to 9, so 35 is reached from 40, not from 30.

Modern base-10 form

ọgbọ̀n ó lé márùn-ún

In school maths, prices and phone numbers, the modern system only adds: "ó lé" means "and more", so the parts are simply summed.
