Бир is one. Used before nouns: бир адам (one person), бир нерсе (one thing).
Эки is two. Kyrgyz numbers are straightforward up to ten; teens and tens introduce minor complexity.
Үч is three. The vowel harmony shifts as numbers combine with other words.
Он is ten. Twenty is жыйырма, thirty отуз. Still fine. Prices are usually stated clearly.
