Other comments: South-Central Banda is spoken by approximately 153,000 speakers in

Ngbugu is a variety of South-Central Banda. Ngbugu has a quinary / vigesimal system of counting. The 'tɜ̀' at beginning (20 - 59) is often dropped in rapid speech. Also, ' t͡ʃèpànɜ̀', which means 'more' is intentionally dropped from 26 to 29. The word for 10 means ''all the fingers'', 20 means ''the whole person'', implied: all the fingers and all the toes. Tone marksː [v́] = high tone, [v̄] = mid tone and [v̀] = low tone.
