Other comments: Dhimal has a vigesimal system. Dhimal is an atonal Tibeto-Burman language which still has traditional numerals from one to ten; after ten, they borrow Nepali numerals mixed with indigenous terms. There also recorded traditional numerals from 11 to 19, but not much used now. Dhimal is spoken by approximately 20,000 speakers in Kosi province, Nepal as well as India.

Note: (eʔ=one, loŋ=generic classifier)
