Other comments: Miri has a quinary counting system. The word 'file', which means 'hands. The word for half is 'senbepal' It really means a half of whole, unlike the usual
Oceanic Austronesian form 'lim' or 'rim'. Miri is spoken in Butmas Village and surrounding village. It is uncertain that if Miri is a newly discovered language, or dialect of the Butmas-Tur language. Butmas-Tur is spoken by about 500 speakers in
east central Espiritu Santo island, Sanma province, Vanuatu.
