Other comments: Guató is a language of the Macro-Ge Stock, but not related to any other languages spoken today. The data were collected from September 1997 to August 1984. The group was then about 200, but only 20-25 spoke the language. Guató has a quinary system up to twenty, and a decimal system over 20, it was possible to record the numbers given here, but for the numerals 60, 70, 80 and 90, the informants mixes them up and could not organize them properly. The words for 15 'kávĩbɔ' and 'dečúa' in numbers 16 to 19, 'kʷávĩbɔ' for 20, 'kɛdakʷa' in 40, 'díčerokʷá' for 50, and 'ɡʷátehe' in 100, 200 and 1000 were unknown. The morphemes rá 'hand' and bɔ 'foot' are generally preceded by '-i' which means 'his / her'. Note that the traditional phonetic symbolsː č = IPA [ t͡ʃ ], ǰ = IPA [d͡ʒ], the acute mark [á ] = high tone and low tone is unmarked.
