In Filipino language, we use the spanish version:
Uno
dos
tres
quatro
sinco
seis
siete
otso
nuebe
dies

but we also use the native version:
1-Isa
2-dalawa
3-tatlo
4-apat
5-lima
6-anim
7-pito
8-walo
9-siyam
10-sampu

In pangasinan dialect that I also know:
1 Sakey
2 dua
3 talo
4 apat
5 lima
6 anem
7 pito
8 walo
9 siyam
10 samplu

In visayan languages:
1 Usa
2 duha
3 tulo
4 upat
5 lima
6 anum
7 pito
8 walu
9 nampulu (or sampulu, depends on the provinces versions)

So you can say pito pitos para ocho chochos.

^^My Error:
In Visayan language:
9 - must be SIYAM (Not nampulu!)

10 - is NAMPULU

ocho chochos.>>

What do you mean by this.

There's no such phrase as pito pitos para ocho chochos in fil. Language.

And pito pito is a name of a herbal plant.

Here too. Its seed is used to increase fertility of women.

Really? That's pito pito that I was really saying. I thought that term is a native filipino word. I guess it's really a spanish term and not tagalog.

Can I ask what country are you from?

I don't like the spellings of One four six nine - they are weak-looking and not as English/Germanic looking as they should be.
