Other comments: Khoibu Naga exhibits the decimal system of counting which is a typical feature of Tibeto-Burman languages, but Benedict (1973ː93) stated that the Tibeto-Burman numeral system "it seems to have included a vigesimal unit along with the distinctive root *(m)kul '20'...". As Benedict further states that no general Tibeto-Burman root for 'one' can be established and the 'root *gip for ten is poorly represented. But here in Khoibu word for the numeral 'ten' is cip which is quite similarly established from the Proto-Tibeto-Burman form. Khoibu is a tonal language and there are three tones in Khoibu, viz. rising (v́), level (v̄) and falling (v̀).
