Other comments: Kimbundu or Kimbundo, Luanda, Lunda, Mbundu, North Mbundu is spoken by approximately 1,700,160 speakers in northwest Angola, mainly Bengo, Kuanza Norte, and Malanje provinces; adjacent areas in Kuanza Sul, Luanda, and Uíge provinces and São Tomé e Príncipe.

Kimbundu has a decimal systems.

(1) For the number "20" , with a translation in French (it is must easier for me!),

        word for word:
         mákwínyí á yàdì
         pl.10 + pronoun + two /dizaines + celles de + deux/ "les dizaines de deux"

deux dizaines = 20

(2) For the numbers 30 to 90 in kimbundu, and in other languages also, the

string /-i+a (pronoun)/ merged together, and a final number also:

mákwínyí á tanù → mákwínyátánù (50).
