Numbers are everywhere at home: prices, phone numbers, ages, bus numbers, how many cups of tea. English speakers learn one to ten and then try to build bigger numbers the English way, word by word, or they switch to English halfway through a sentence. They also say "I am thirty" with the word for "am", when Malayalam says it quite differently.
