Other comments: Jebero (Chebero, Xebero) or Shiwilu is an endangered language with 30 speakers in 2,500 ethnic population in Loreto region: Alto Amazonas province, Jeberos district, between Marañon and Huallaga rivers, Peru.

Shiwilu or Jebero has five traditional numerals. They have developed a decimal system mixing with indigenous terms and Quechua loanword. Shiwilu is a

nearly extinct language.

Note thatː

1. alaʔ(saʔ)  comment: alaʔ 'one' + -saʔ 'only'

2. katuʔ(taʔ) katuʔ is used when this word is the first component in combination such as 'twenty' or 'two men'.

3 . kala

4. ínkatuʔ  stress is irregular, it is generally found on the penultimate syllable but here it is in the first syllable suggesting that the numeral is a combination of in- + number ‘two’. In- is a reflexive/reciprocal marker.

5. aleiʔteklun  alaʔ + itekla 'one hand', don’t know why the ending /un/.
