innumerous

/ɪnˈn(j)u.mɝ.əs/ adj

Not capable of being counted or numerated; indefinitely numerous.

Word Origin From Latin 'in-' (not) and 'numerus' (number) — literally 'not numberable,' countless. Numerus is from PIE '*nem-' (to assign, allot), which also gives us numeral, enumerate, and supernumerary. Innumerous is a less common cousin of innumerable, but the idea is the same: too many to count.
