Shastadari Time Units

Shastadari’s fundamental time unit is the anuga, described on the Base Units page;

Civil time (as in time on a clock) is divided into six units; one day is divided regularly into sixths, and we group those sixths into units as such:

the dina (DEE-nuh), symbol din, corresponding to day itself;
the uta (OO-tuh), symbol uta, corresponding to the first two divisions, closer to the hour (0‍󱹮‍4 h = 104 min; 0‥6 h = 40 min);
the posha (POH-shuh), symbol pox, corresponding to the next two divisions, closer to the minute (1‍󱹮‍04 min / 1‥1 min);
the agrima (uh-GREE-muh), symbol agm, corresponding to the next two divisions, closer to the second (1‍󱹮‍504 s / 1‥851 s);
the anuga (uh-NOO-guh), symbol ang, corresponding to the next two divisions, closer to the centisecond, the base unit of time already described (5‍󱹮‍041‍󱹭‍04 cs / ~ 5.144 032 922 cs);
the boda (BOH-duh), symbol bod, corresponding to the last two divisions, closer to the millisecond (1‍󱹮‍232‍󱹭‍350‍󱹬‍4 ms / ~ 1.428 898 034 ms);

So, one day is divided:

5‍󱹮‍55‍󱹷‍55‍󱹷‍55‍󱹷‍55‍󱹷‍55

5 ‍󱹮‍ 55 ‍󱹷‍ 55 ‍󱹷‍ 55 ‍󱹷‍ 55 ‍󱹷‍ 55

dina ‍󱹮‍ uta ‍󱹷‍ posha ‍󱹷‍ agrima ‍󱹷‍ anuga ‍󱹷‍ boda

Prefixes can be used with any of the units of time, and the conversion between the units and prefixes is done as follows:

The name of each of the units come from the following Sanskrit words:
