Other comments: Kayan, also spelt as Kaian, is a Ramu language of Kaian village (4.054465°S 144.736539°E) spoken by about 73 speakers in Yawar Rural LLG, Madang Province, Papua New Guinea. Kayan has recorded traditional numerals from 1 to 9 years ago, not sure if they are still using old traditional numbers or body tally after 9 or now use Tok Pisin numerals after 9. New data for numbers after ten is required. |
