Other comments: Tontontepec Mixe has a vigesimal system. The representation is quite phonetic. There are nine vowels in surface contrast in this dialect, the numbers reducible to six, the standard number in most Mixean languages, as a function of palatalization, in a sufficiently (?) abstract representation. Plosive voicing is explainable by allophonic rule in almost all instances but show it here because the rule is complex and native speakers tend to respond to the difference. (') represents a glottal catch, in syllable initial position a consonant, postsyllabically (post-vocalica-lly) varying from fairly discrete catch to varying degrees of laryngealization according to context. (š̩) is an alveopalatal retroflexed sibilant. Most Mixe dialects begin in the system at sixteen (perhaps not most, but some) from fifteen one, fifteen two, etc. One dialect has special words for eighteen and nineteen numbers back from twenty. The prefix vuš̩- in seven, seventeen, forty, has the meaning of 'two' in some other old words. (e.g. vuhškms 'day after tomorrow'). This is done from memory and it has been more than twenty years since I did my field work in the language. There are missing terms for 21 to 29, 50, 70 and 90 need to be filled with new data.
