Well, if we want to speak or write about “once” meaning “on one occasion” in Láadan, we can use the same structure: “hath nede.” Likewise, “twice” meaning “on two occasions” becomes “hath shin.” And “thrice” or “three times” meaning “on three occasions” is “hath boó.” This can continue through all the numbers and quantifiers all the way to “hath woho” (always; every time; on every occasion) or “hath raho” (never; on no occasion). Did you notice that “hath woho” and “hath raho” are synonyms for “hadihad” (always) and “rahadihad” (never), respectively?^[15].
