Other comments: Aribwatsa or Lae is an extinct language of the Busu subgroup of Lower Markham languages in the area of Lae, Morobe Province, Papua New Guinea. Descendants of the Aribwatsa language community have mostly switched to the Bukawa language, which is spoken all along the north coast of the Huon Gulf and in several villages on the south coast. According to Sue Holzknecht's old data recorded 20 years ago. Aribwatsa people have an old counting system combines a counting system based on two with tallying on hand and feet up to 20, and a word artsamo, literally 'whole man' to express 20. 40 was expressed by artsamo siruk (two people).
