How 95 is built in Yorùbá

àárùndínlọ́gọ́rùn-ún is àrún (5) taken away from ọgọ́rùn-ún (100): 100 − 5 = 95. The "dín" in the word means "less".
ọgọ́rùn-ún (100) is 5 twenties: 5 × 20.
Yorùbá counts down from the next ten for any number ending in 5 to 9, so 95 is reached from 100, not from 90.

Modern base-10 form

àádọ́rùn-ún 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.
