F-hundred and c-tee-five doesn't just roll off the tongue does it?

  I think it would be better to just use new words. Using decimal digits for another base gets a little ambiguous anyway.

    Using specific words is cultural. There are languages were in order to say a big number you just enumerate its digits.

      Such as Tongan: http://www.sf.airnet.ne.jp/ts/language/number/tongan.html http://www.sf.airnet.ne.jp/ts/language/number/tongan.html Do you know of another unrelated language that works similarly?
