Other comments: Fiji Hindustani numeral system is similar to that of Awadhi. They use
English numbers with phonological adaptations more often, especially the numbers 21 to 19. The traditional numbers 60, 70 and 90 does not exist in Fiji Hindi. Note that the traditional phonetic symbolsː c=IPA [tʃ], j =IPA [d͡ʒ], y=IPA [j]. e=[ɛ], u=[ʊ],

o=[ɔ], aː=[ɑː], a=[ə],  ɪ [ɪ], ai=[aɪ], au=[ɐu].

Fiji Hindustani is spoken by approximately 330,000 speakers in Fiji, Australia and New Zealand.
