Other comments: The Bauzi people use the hands and feet system. They easily count to twenty ''au ahim fole naba ahim fole'', which means ''2 hands finished, 2 feet finished''. 6 is expressed by ''add one finger the other hand'', 10 is ''2 hands finished'' and 11 is'' add one toe''. When both hands are completed, the hands are clapped together and when counting on the feet, it is customary to hold onto the toes being included. However, because of the length of the description of each number, the younger generation is tending to use the shorter numbers of the national language, Bahasa Indonesia. Anything over the worth of one or two men may be described as abo duate 'a lot'. Note: v́ is a stress mark. Bauzi is spoken by about 1,500 speakers in several villages

extensive inland area between Mamberamo and Rouffaer rivers, Jayapura and Yapen Waropen regencies, Papua province, Indonesia.
