Etymology

жиырма (jiyrma) +‎ -ыншы (-ynşy). Cognate with Azerbaijani iyirminci, Khakas чибіргінӌі (çibìrgìncì), Shor чегирбенчи, Turkish yirminci, Uzbek yigirmanchi, etc. The infix -с- because of the ending vowel -а. If Kazakh had a cardinal form **жиырмы /(d)ʒɨ.jɨr.mɨ/ with an -ы vowel, then the ordinal form would be **жиырмыншы /(d)ʒɨ.jɨr.mɨn.ʃɨ/.

Pronunciation
  • IPA(key): /(d)ʒɨ.jɨr.ma.sɨn.ʃɨ/
