never inflects: no -j, no -n, however many things it counts. Note the spelling, because kv- is where Esperanto puts the Latin qu- and English speakers reliably want to type a q that the alphabet does not contain. The derivatives run predictably: is fourth, o a quarter, e four at a time, and is forty, written as one word like every other multiple of ten.
