Other comments: Hdi or Hedi has a decimal system of counting. The word ''mìdá'' in compound numerals means ''inside''. So, 21 would be ''20, 1 inside''. The word ''ɮìbì'' is used to count money while ''də̀mbù'' is a designated number derived from Hausa ''dubu''.

Hdi (Hedi, Hadi ) is a West Chadic language of Cameroon and Nigeria. In Cameroon, Hdi is only spoken in one village on the Nigerian border, namely Tourou (arrondisement of Mokolo, department of Mayo-Tsanaga, Far North Region) by 1000 speakers. It is mainly spoken in Nigeria. The Hdi and Mabas languages are closely related, but are distinct languages.
