Other comments: Gbari or West Gwari is spoken is spoken by approximately 550,000 speakers in Abuja Capital Territory: Gwagwalada; Kogi state: Kogi LGA; Niger state: Zungeru to Kaduna river north, Nigeria. Gbari has a rather complicated numeral system of counting. Numbers 15 to 19 have two alternate forms. The use of the special number '15 [woɡí]' occurs when forming higher numbers also. The number for '100 [k͡paɡʷo] might be replaced by some dialects use [kʷoliya]. The big numbers beyond hundred people often use Hausa. The symbol 'ɡ͡bᵐ' is a post-nasalized glottal plosive, 'tⁿ ' is a post-nasalized alveolar plosive, 'k͡p' is a labial-velar plosive.
