Glyphs may also be used to represent numbers. A base ten number system with a semblance of positional notation is used.{{17s ref\|topic\|6487\|Thaylen and Alethi Glyph Translation\|date=2014-3-6}} Numerals are written with bilateral symmetry and may be stylized for artistic or aesthetic purposes. It is unclear whether these glyphs are used only in Vorin nations or throughout Roshar. The names used for the numbers does vary, even among the Vorin nations. In Vorin usage, the words for numbers one through ten are ~~named~~derived from the names ~~after~~of the ten [[Herald]]s. Each is also assigned a suffix, and the names of larger numbers are created by combining these suffixes. Thus the number "1173" is "Jesesabach", using Jes (1), -es (1), -ab (7), -ach (3). {\| class="infobox"
