Other comments: Oyda has a decimal numeral system. Notesː The acute accent represents high tone, maybe in combination with stress accent (pitch accent?); low or non-high is unmarked. The symbol “c” is used for the voiceless palatal affricate [tʃ]. The stem -p(p)un/-fun ([p] and [f] vary under certain circumstances), also occurring in Wolaitta as -p(p)una, is – doubtfully – traced back to the Old Cushitic-Omotic stem *(a)kwem- “5” by Lamberti & Sottile (1997: “The Wolaytta Language”, Köln: Rüdiger Köppe Verlag, page 114); for ʔizí- “1” in “6” compare their Wolaitta ʔista “1”. The language name “Oyda” is not related to ʔoiddí “4”, but to a lexeme meaning “chair, seat, stool” (own field research in May-June 2011). Oyda is an Afro-Asiatic language spoken in the Gamo Gofa Zone of Ethiopia by about 45,000 speakers.
