Other comments: Moskona is spoken by about 8,000 speakers in southeast Bird’s Head, west Bituni Bay; Sebjor river basin, West Papua province, Indonesia. Moskona has a mixed quinary /vigesimal system similar to that of the Meyah language. The origin of  t͡ʃíjd͡ʒa 'five' is lost in the mists of time. The numeral stem sɛtka ‘ten’ is possibly a fused phrase, composed of (o)s(nok) ‘person’ and the verb root etka ‘divide’. The number kóɾam ‘fifteen’ is possibly a fused form of the phrase (o)ko er-em (foot NUM:4-CST) ‘another foot’. The root-initial vowel of oko ‘foot’ and er-em elided as the phrase reduced. Now They have borrowed Malay numbers ratus 'hundred' and ribu ''thousand''.
