Māori has a system for counting that uses words, not numerals:
* Tahi - One
* Rua - Two
* Toru - Three
* Wha - Four
* Rima - Five
* Ono - Six
* Whitu - Seven
* Waru - Eight
* Iwa - Nine
* Tekau - Ten
To express 69, you would need to say "Onoru tekau mā iwa" which means "Six tens and nine".
However, it's important to remember that Māori language is nuanced and expressive. There might be more poetic or informal ways to say 69 depending on the context.
