Other comments: Gimme (Gəmme) or Kompana has a vigesimal system. The unit 20 is gbàhˀ-se / gbàh-re "staff, stick". Kompanan is a noun class language. Numbers from 1-5 may agree with the nouns they qualify. Thus : gbàh-sɨ́ wɔn-zè 'one stick, 20' and gbàh-sɨ́ ta^h-sèˀ 'three stick(s), 60' The above new data is taken from Gəmme or Kompana (< Koma Pana) (not Kampara) yə̀gme, the lect of Yeege spoken in and around the southern part of the Alantika Mountains, Kìŋgìlu, Sɔ̀yí, Zugsáamo, Wùlba (Pánpá); Jalingo, Département de Faro, North Region, Cameroon (assisted by Njidda Mathieu, Jalingo).

Other comments: Gimme or Kampana or Kamparahas a decimal system. The word for 'twenty' ɡbàhsɨ́ means 'staff', there is a loan for 'hundred' tèméré, from Fulani, frequently used for money.
