When counting from one to ten, Arabic speakers use a counting system that is the foundation for the 'Arabic numerals' used globally today, though they originated in India.
Arabic has a unique way of counting called 'counting by duality' where the number two has its own special grammatical form instead of just being 'one plus one'.
Arabic numbers exhibit a complex gender system where the form of the number changes depending on whether the object being counted is masculine or feminine.
