Other comments: Mezquital Otomi (Hñähñu) or Mezquital Valley Otomi (Valle del Mezquital in Spanish) is spoken by approximately 88,000 in Hidalgo state: Mezquital valley; México state: north border, Mexico. Mezquital Otomi (Hñähñu) or Mezquital Valley Otomi (Valle del Mezquital in Spanish)  has a vigesimal numeral system and the number 20 (all digits of hands and feet) serves as a base for larger numbers:  20+10=30, 2 x 20=40, half of one hundred=50, 40+10=50, 3 x 20=60, etc. 1 x100=100. This language is spoken in Mezquital Valley, Hidalgo, Mexico.

Note that the traditional American phonetic notationsː 1. ñ =IPA [ɲ]; 2 y =IPA [j]. Hñähñu is tonal language. The "h" symbol for number 3 must be nasal-palatal, but I could not find a symbol for this one, so I left it as an h even though it is not fricative-glottal. The name of this language is Hñähñu, some named it as Otomí, but for hñähñu people, it could be pejorative to be called “otomi”, their language or themselves. There is another language spoken in some other regions called Otomí; it’s similar, but it is not the same.
