Other comments: The above new data of numeral system for the Kyanga language are a little different from that of the old data provided by Dr. Ross Jones some years agoː the compound numerals for 16 to 19 are used by different ways and the formations for higher numbers for 300, 400 and other hundreds are different. Other hundreds areː 500. [ɡēːkólì]kó͡ìdù̀, 600ː ɡēːkólì ūdʲūn kó͡ìdù, 700.kó͡īwàsôːlū, 800. kó͡īwàsólhȳjā and 900.kó͡īwàsól kōːʷ |

Other comments: Kyanga has a numeral system closely related to that of languages of Boko/Busa group. Note that unmarked vowels above are mid tones. /e/ is a near close near front vowel /ı/. If / ı/ is used, it becomes ambiguous when marked with a suprasegmental. |
