/**
 * German numbers in words, for heading templates (`{1:words}`,
 * `{1:ordinal}`, `{1:Ordinal-neuter}`) and the `{numberWords}` /
 * `{numberOrdinalWords}` design placeholders: „Kapitel einundzwanzig“,
 * „Das erste Kapitel“, „Erstes Kapitel“, „Erster Teil“.
 *
 * Cardinals are written as one word, as the Duden spells them below a
 * million (zweitausendvierundzwanzig), *eins* where the number ends in it
 * (hunderteins) and *ein* before *und* or *tausend* (einundzwanzig,
 * hunderteintausend). Ordinals take the weak ending *-e*, the form after
 * the article that serves every gender („der erste Teil“, „das erste
 * Kapitel“), unless a gender asks for the strong form a heading without
 * an article needs: *-er* masculine („Erster Teil“), *-e* feminine
 * („Erste Lektion“), *-es* neuter („Erstes Kapitel“). Swiss German
 * (`de-CH`, `de-LI`) writes *ss* for *ß*: dreissig.
 *
 * The caller keeps the numbers in range (up to 999 999). Number words are
 * not nouns, so they are lower case unless the template asks for a
 * capital.
