Other comments: Central Sama has a decimal system similar to that of Northern Sama.

Notesː

(1) [ˈs̩ːa] is the form used in counting. In numbering items, however, the word

    [daˈkajuʔ] is used.  It is a combination of the prefix da- 'one' and the root kajuʔ

    'item,' which seems to be a frozen form as it appears now only in this word.

(2) ə represents a high-central vowel which in multi-syllabic words shifts slightly in

     the direction of the vowel of the following syllable.  It occurs only before long

     consonants or homorganic consonant clusters.  When ə appears in world-initial

     position, it is typically elided, e.g. /ˈəs.sa/→[ˈs̩ːa].

(3) [aˈkadːa] is a combination of the clitic dda [ˈdːa], or the numeral [ˈs̩ːa], with the

     ordinary conjunction maka 'and.'  In ordinary speech maka can be shortened to aka,

     or even ka, when used in numbers.

(4) [ˈŋibu] appears to be a combination of a nasal linker or ligature (e.g. [damˈbulan]

     'one month' from bulan 'month') with a root [ˈibu] 'thousand'.  For example, ibu-

      ibuhan 'thousands and thousands; by the thousand.'

(5) Two additional lexical items may be of interest: [ˈlaksaʔ] 'a unit of 10,000; by

      extension, any large, uncountable group'.  [ˈlaksaʔ] combines as do the other roots:

     [daˈlaksaʔ, ˌduwaˈlaksaʔ], etc.
