More from Hrant Papazian on Armenuan numbering: To distill things: > 1. is 7000 expressed as Ւ U+0552 or ՈՒ U+0548 U+0552 ? 7000 should ideally be expressed as Ւ U+0552 > 2. is an appropriate default for 'armenian' upper- or lowercase? Default to uppercase, but allow lc. > 3. is the glyph that indicates values over 9,999 a circumflex or a line My educated guess is something like U+055F If a circumflex has ever been used, it's very rare. And if I had to choose between a circumflex or a bar I would choose the bar. BTW, the use of U+0585 and U+0586 for 10,000 and 20,000 is not uncommon, but I would avoid it for the reason that 30,000 etc doesn't exist, so it's not a very elegant scheme. Some purists don't even like to show U+0585 and U+0586 in the alphabet...
