Other comments: Palauan has s complicated counting system with several sets of

numerals, the above one is used in serial counting. Note that the 'l' in numbers

200 'ɛruldɑrt ' and 2,000 ' ɛrultɛlɑəl' come from 'əl' ( possessive marker) and [lː]

in 20 is a 'germinated l', or a lengthened lateral approximant.
