Other comments: Kambera has a decimal numeral system of counting. The original form for number 3 is 'tilu', but in order to avoid the same pronunciation with the word 'tilu' which means 'egg' or 'testis', so they use the form 'tailu'. Note that the 'ɗ' in numbers 1 and 2 is a voiced implosive dental stop. Kambera or Hilu Humba is spoken by 240,000 speakers in east Sumba island, East Nusa Tenggara province, Indonesia. |
