Other comments: Kaisabu is a divergent dialect of Cia-Cia, and it should be probably considered a separated language.

Note the vowel coalescence that occurs with xoa + anuxoanu ‘two’ and siua + anusiuanu ‘nine’, but does not occur with lima + anu ‘five’.

  The forms given above are used for straight counting. anu can be omitted when reaching twenty, thirty, etc. thus xoapulu (rather than xoapuluanu), tolupulu (rather than tolupuluanu), etc.

   Anu is omitted when counting money, e.g. limaxivu ‘five thousand (rupiah)’, limapulu ‘fifty (thousand rupiah)’.

  When counting items, kaalu [ˈkaːlu] ~ [kaˈalu] is used instead of anu. These forms run:

akaalu, xoakaalu, tolukaalu, patokaalu, limakaalu, nomokaalu, pitukaalu, alukaalu,
siuakaalu, ompulukaalu
, etc.

When counting days, the base also is used, with intercalated glottal stop. These forms run:

aʔalo  ‘one day’, xoaʔalo  ‘two days’, toluʔalo  ‘three days’, patoʔalo  ‘four days’,
limaʔalo  ‘five days’, nomoʔalo  ‘six days’, pituʔalo  ‘seven days’, aluʔalo  ‘eight days’,
siuaʔalo  ‘nine days’, ompuluʔalo  ‘ten days’, etc.
