Other comments: Berta has an original quinary, vigesimal numeral system. However, the Berta numeral system has been nearly replaced by Arabic numerals now, only the traditional numerals 1 to 2 preserved. The above data is from Western Isogloss of Berta spoken in Ethiopia and Sudan. Note that the Arabic loanwords are from the Arabic dialect of Asosa area ( 11 up to 50 in the first set ) and the set of traditional numerals from 1, to 5, 7, 8 and 9 recorded by Amy Krell (2011) for Western isogloss in Sudan which called 'Baruun be Magtole'ː 1.dokúnu, 2, haláŋonó, 3. zɛ́tkunú, 4. ʃaːgùm, 5. aʃin, 7. aʃinhintɔwluholoŋono, 8. aʃínɪntolozɪtkùnu, 9. áʃɪnhɪndoloʃogam, and the Eastern Isogloss recorded by Bender (1989 ) in Jebel Ura areː 1. muŋkʼú/ mənnəkʼu,

2. mohɔ́ɔlaŋ, 3. múuθe /mɔ́ɔθe, 4. mənəmu, 5. mə́kʼuuʃó. Berta is spoken by approximately 400,000 speakers in Benishangul-Gumuz region in southwest Ethiopia, near, Blue Nile river and Sudan border and in Sudan.

Other comments: Berta has an original quinary, vigesimal numeral system. However, nowadays, they use Arabic numerals after ten, even after three. The above data was from Eastern Isogloss of Berta.
