Counting in Kerch

Language overview

Kerch is the language of the small island nation of Kerch located in the True Sea in the Grishaverse world of Leigh Bardugo’s books Shadow and Bone and Six of Crows. The Kerch language appears in the Netflix series Shadow and Bone released on April, 23 2021. Its written form has been designed by David J. Peterson. The Netflix series features also two other languages created by David J. Peterson: Ravkan and Fjerdan, the latter with Christian Thalmann.

Kerch numerals

As stated above, the Kerch language has not been developped yet, as it exists only as an alphabet in its written form. I don’t know much of the Kerch numbers apart from its numerals, which already tell us it follows a decimal system. So stay tuned, I will add content to this page as soon as I get more data.
