heth = twelve (Lhaesine pronunciation = HEHTH) (adjective) (number) (some things Google found for "heth": a common term; a last name, notably Confederate Civil War general Henry Heth (pronounced to rhyme with "teeth") and elderly black woman Joice Heth who P.T. Barnum put on display in 1835 advertising that she was the 161-year-old former nurse of George Washington(!); a letter in many Semitic alphabets; Heth & Jed are NYC musicians or buskers; The Children of Heth are a Canaanite nation in the Hebrew Bible; name of a Jaredite in the Book of Mormon; means "dog" in Arapaho; a town in Arkansas; a city in Pakistan)
Continuing with number revisions. My previous Lhaesine word for "twelve" was "heita". My new word is simplier. Note that my word for "two" is "hede".
This word has been redone. The Lhaesine word for "twelve" is now "cers". This posting is no longer current.
Lhaesine is a conlang, an artificial or constructed language. This is a project to invent a lexicon of new "words" in an imaginary language. Postings shows English to Lhaesine, my approximate Lhaesine word pronunciation, and what Google search found for my made-up word.

eleven is maigur (revisited)
maigur = eleven (Lhaesine pronunciation = MAY-guhr) (adjective) (number) (some things Google found for "maigur": an uncommon to rare term; a last name that's possibly a variation of Maguire and a name from India; a road in the city of Jamkhandi in the State of Karnataka in India)
My previous Lhaesine word for "eleven" was "magre". I've changed the spelling, but the pronunciation remains nearly the same. My new word is two syllables, instead of just one. It bears some resemblance to my word for "one" which is "mag".
This word has been revised. The Lhaesine word for "eleven" is now "jaem". I decided that I didn't want my word for eleven to look like my word for one; I changed my mind.
This word has been revised again. The Lhaesine word for "eleven" is now "jond". This posting is no longer current.

My previous Lhaesine word for "paint" was "brese". I'm lengthening the word by two letters, and at the same time making it look less like the word for wheat which is "brene".
