Other comments: Ngan'gikurrunggurr or Ngan'gityemerri has the above four words with numeral-like functions. I’ve asked people for ‘four’ and been told fagarri fagarri, but only under elicitation and I’ve never recorded or heard it used spontaneously. The data from Eirlys Richards is not Ngan’gikurunggur, or indeed any of the Daly languages.
