Other comments: Karas is an endangered language spoken by approximately 250 speakers in villages Maas and Antalisa, Karas district, Fakfak regency, West Papua province, Indonesia. Karas or Kalamang has a decimal system. Numbers 100 and 1000 are Malay loanwords. I hesitate to analyse raman-dalin as 6+1, because talin (probably the underlying form) only occurs in the number seven and as a linker for ones and tens above 30. Please note that tens from 31 and up are linked by talin, not by ba. E.g. 41: putˈkansuor taˈlinggon.

*c, f and h are marginal/uncommon
