Other comments: Aweer (Boni) has a decimal system. Boni number 'one' has a masculine form and a feminine form. The 'kóów' is only used in counting. The above data were taken from Kilii dialect. Aweer (Aweera), also known as Boni (Bon, Bonta), is a Cushitic language of Eastern Kenya approximately 7,600 speakers. The Aweer people, known by the arguably derogatory exonym "Boni," are historically a hunter-gatherer people, traditionally subsisting on hunting, gathering, and collecting honey.
