Numerals never take -j or -n, so it is with the endings on the noun alone and never kvinjn. Beyond that, behaves like any other root and grows the usual family: is fifth, is fifthly, kvino is a group of five, a is fivefold and o is a fifth part. Building ten out of it works by simple juxtaposition too, for fifty, written as one word.
