Numbers referring to people[edit | edit source]

When referring to groups of people(such as "you both" or "the three of them"), the suffix -guru must be added.

  • Two people: iddaru(ఇద్దరు)
  • Three people: muggaru(ముగ్గురు)
  • The rest of the numbers can simply be created by adding the -guru suffix
    • Four people: naluguru(నలుగురు)
    • Five people: aiduguru(ఐదుగురు)
