Other comments: Above are the numbers from 1-20 in Pokomchi' or Poqomchi' language. It's a base 20 numeral system, and has lots of nice morphology in this set and a good example of a 'going on' numeral system. Unfortunately, speakers no longer use the numbers above 20, and tend to count in Spanish after that point.
