Other comments: Geji or Gyaazi has developed a decimal counting system now. For phonetic completeness, the first vowel is nasalized in nitgi (7) and zabəl (100).
Please note the following differences between traditional phonemic inventory and IPA transcriptionsː
1. tl = voiceless lateral fricative = IPA [ɬ]
2. zh = voiced post-alveolar fricative = IPA [ʒ]
3. c = voiceless affricate ( English /ch/ ) = IPA [tʃ]
4. a̠ = schwa = IPA [ə]
5. y = IPA [j]
Tones are referred to Charles H. Kraft (2007).

Other comments: Geji has a vigesimal system of counting. There are some missing terms. The data need checking with updated ones.
