Other comments: Lik or Eipomek is spoken by about 3,000 speakers in Eastern highlands, Eipo river area, Papua province, Indonesia. The Eipomek has a base–25 counting system (yupa=bundle), counting along arms and head (e.g. famu=thumb; barye=right side; tek=forearm bone; fin=inside of elbow; taku=shoulder; o=ear; selek=left side). Some words have no other meaning but are used only for counting, such as kok lom, which is the spot just behind the earlobe.
