Other comments: Kosarek numerals are based on a scheme of 27, which represents

one “teng” or “ta’om”. It could also be argued that the base is 14, after which the numbers 15 through 27 are merely represented by a word that in essence means “(other) side.” After 27, things are multiplied (1 or 2 ‘teng’, etc) then “lift up (add)”

the numbers to achieve the correct numeral. Practically, most things are not counted beyond 27 in Kosarek society anyway. When money is used, Indonesia numerals are often used, unless one states the Kosarek numeral as “ten ‘seribu’” (seribu being an Indonesian denomination of money of 1,000 rupiah) or sometime simply “ten” (with the expectation that the other person understands which denomination is intended whether 1,000, or 5,000, or 100,000 rupiah). Having said this, many Kosarek people are not aware of different denominations of money and must rely on a friend of relative to inform them whether it is the correct denomination or not. If the thing referred to is in a multitude, (such as a hundred or so warriors) they may simply say “teng-tengne”, with the idea of being innumerable. Although theoretically they could be precise if they took the time to count, this seems to almost never be done
