[Moeller] I doubt .The construction one over teen is not a latin one and
the numerals are almost the same:
one

(pron.indef.), umbric unu, osc. *unu, lat. unus, rom unu
two:

ten
PIE *dekm old irl. deich, cymr. deg, cret dek, osc., deke-, umbr.
dese-8n), lat decem, alb dhjete:,skt daSa, avest. dasa, tom zece.
So, why latin? some are identic utih skt. and avestan, some identic with
baltic some looks more osco-umbric.. I dont think is so clear as the
water this is inherited from latin.And if we think about the
construction of numerals betwen eleven and 20 we are lost in space.
