Other comments: Pengo is spoken by approximately 65,000 speakers in Odisha state, India. Pengo has a vigesimal system. In Pengo, as in Kuvi, only remains two traditional Dravidian numerals 1 to 2 used attributively. The first number /ro/ has been metathesized from * or, functions like /onɽu / in Tamil /ronj/; the second number /ri / has been metathesized from original *ir in the same way as /ro/.  For numerals after Oriya numerals are used.
