Five to nine
Finish the single digits and read their fully marked names.
Counting pattern
Compare ٥ (five) with ٠ (zero), and ٦ (six) with Western 6: learn values rather than guessing from resemblance. In sitta, shadda doubles t. In these standalone words, taa marbuuṭa ة is pronounced as the ending -a. All base letters are familiar by this point; ة and hamza were introduced with shadda and laam–alif. If these signs are new to you, revisit that lesson. Names below use pause pronunciation without final case endings.

Shadda on taa means hold the t closure: sit-ta, without an extra vowel between the two t sounds.

Baa has sukuun; go from b straight to the voiced throat consonant ayn.

Begin with th in thin, hold aa, and then say ni-ya with consonant y.
