In the Santali language, nouns change depending on whether you are talking about one, two, or more than two things. This unique middle category for exactly two things is called the dual form.

Here is how you count cows to understand the difference:

• Singular (One): If you see just one cow standing in a field, it is called ᱢᱤᱫᱴᱟᱹᱝ ᱰᱟᱹᱝᱜᱽᱨᱤ (mit'ṭang dangri). The word for cow remains in its base form, gai.
• Dual (Exactly Two): If another cow joins it to make a pair, you use the dual suffix -ᱠᱤᱱ (-kin). Two cows together are called ᱵᱟᱨᱭᱟ ᱰᱟᱹᱝᱜᱽᱨᱤ ᱠᱤᱱ (barya dangri kin).
• Plural (Three or More): If a whole herd of three or more cows arrives, you switch to the plural suffix -ᱠᱚ (-ko). A group of cows is called ᱰᱟᱹᱝᱜᱽᱨᱤ ᱠᱚ (dangriko).
