Other comments: Ongota or Birale has developed a decimal numeral system borrowed

numerals from the Tsamai and Amharic languages. Ongota (also known as Birale, Birayle) is a moribund language of southwest Ethiopia. UNESCO reported in 2012 that out of a total ethnic population of 115, only 12 elderly native speakers remained, the rest of their small village on the west bank of the Weito River having adopted the Tsamai language instead.

Other comments: Birale numeral system might be similar to Tsamai numeral system,

it is probably they have adopted the Tsamai system based on 20. On the above chart, numbers after an asterisk are from SIL source.
