Other comments: Monzombo has a decimal system. For number 10, ' 'head of hand or arm' i.e. the ten fingers. The number 'hundred' is a loan from Lingala language.

Monzombo is a four level tonal language, a̋ = super-high, á = high, ā = mid,

à = low. There are nasal vowels, which are expressed by a subscript tilde ' a̰ '.
