How the patterns shape this root
عَشَرَة is ten and عَاشِر (فَاعِل) tenth; عُشْر is a tenth. عِشْرُونَ, twenty, shows how the tens are built: the ending ـُونَ on the number word — ثَلَاثُونَ thirty, أَرْبَعُونَ forty, خَمْسُونَ fifty. عَاشُورَاء is the tenth day of the month of Muharram. The same root gives form III عَاشَرَ, to keep company with — originally the people of your clan, your عَشِيرَة — and مُعَاشَرَة, social relations.
