Other comments: Koasati or Coushatta is spoken by approximately 370 speakers in 
Louisiana: Koasati Reservation near Elton; Texas: Alabama-Koasati Reservation near Livingston.
Koasati has a regular decimal system. However, because of extreme pressure from English, the youngest speakers cannot manipulate the system to any great degree, and borrow English words into their Koasati when using numerals. One of the salient features of numerals is that they are verbs, with the exception of the terms cokpí 'hundred' and cokpacóːba 'thousand', which are nouns. There are archaic forms for 6 and 9 (marked with an asterisk).
