Other comments: Mpur has a decimal system with a five-base substructure. Numbers 2, 3, 4 and 5 might borrow from Austronesian language. The words for 100 ''u³ntin'' and 1000 ''ribu'' are loanwords from Austronesian. The traditional Mpur counting system is not much used, especially the numbers over 10. Many of the younger people just use Indonesian. If we use Mpur for numbers over ten, they repeat back in Indonesian to see if they understood correctly. The word ''a⁴ se⁴n'' on compound numbers means ''more''. There are 5 tones, one is unwritten and for the most part we write them on single syllable words where there is the most contrast. Number one is the highest and four is low the lowest, although tone 2 has an allotone that is lower than tone four. Tone marks: 1=high level, 2=mid-rising, 3=low slightly rising,  4=low level, 5=very low rising and mid level is unmarked. Mpur is spoken by about 7,000 speakers in Manokwari regency on north coast of Bird’s Head; also Kebar valley, West Papua province, Indonesia.
