Gumeric numbers are easier to read, say and memorise than other number encodings.
Numbers are expressed firstly in bytes. There's an endian issue, so maybe use little endian?
The bytes are then split into two parts: a 5-bit consonent and a 3-bit vowel. You then make syllables starting with a consonent and ending with a vowel. Words are 2 syllables each and separated by spaces.
The consonents are:
00000 b
00001 br
00010 ch
00011 d
00100 dr
00101 f
00110 g
00111 gr
01000 h
01001 j
01010 k
01011 kw
01100 l
01101 m
01110 n
01111 p
10000 pl
10001 pr
10010 r
10011 s
10100 sh
10101 sk
10110 skr
10111 spl
11000 spr
11001 t
11010 tr
11011 v
11100 w
11101 x
11110 y
11111 z
The vowels, with Japanese/Maori pronuciation, are:
000 a
001 e
010 i
011 o
100 u
101 ai (dipthong as in "Mike")
110 ou (dipthoung as in "ouch")
111 y (as in "bit").
So instead of: 0xDEADBEEF, you say "vouskai splouxy".
