Other comments: Nyangatom has a decimal system nearly equal to that of Turkana language. In counting, the numerals take the feminine forms of the [-restrictive] agreement marker series. In compounds based on numerals a low tone occurs on the second vowel in the stem.

There is a traditional term a-kòwù a-pey ̀, litterally means '' head one'' for 100.

a-mɪ̀-at a-pey is a loanword from Swahili mia .
