Other comments: Heiban or Ebang is spoken by approximately4,000 speakers in

Abul and Heiban towns, South Kordofan state, Sudan. Heiban has a counting system based on twenty with a special construction for 7 and 9. Heiban numbers are only useful for numbers less than 200.

Above this, they become unwieldy, requiring a good knowledge of multipliers of 20.
