Other comments: Andergerebinha or Antekerrepenh (as I spell it ) is no longer spoken.

Antekerrepenh has the following “number” words:
one     anyent (some speakers), awenyerr (some speakers)
two     atherr
a few   urrert (some speakers), urrpety (some speakers)
many    akngerr

Of course, only the first two are really number words.
For information about this language and its close relatives, see the entry for Arrernte in the Elsevier Encyclopedia of Language and Linguistics.
