I have diverges a little from both of your forms for Sateré-Mawe: 1. wẽtup 2. tyypy [tɨ:pɨ] 3.mye'ym [mɨeʔɨm]. Numbers above three looked to me like nonce creations, not really lexicalized forms.

Other comments:  Sateré-Mawé, Mawé, Sataré is spoken by approximately 6,200 speakers out of 16,000 ethnic population: 16,300 in Pará and Amazonas states: Andirá, and Maués rivers, between lower Tapajós and lower Madeira rivers. Sateré-Mawe could count up to ten. The reciprocal morpheme to’o- is used together with the postpostion wi  ‘commitative’. Kokawiat means ‘this side’.  Tota means ‘grab’, so the form for ‘six’, for example, means ‘this side complete, grab one of the other’. The word mo means ‘hand’, and the completative particule ine means ‘complete’. It is to be emphasized that this counting system up to ten is no longer used, or very seldom. Currently what is used is counting up to three, mie’im, and for four and above either torania ‘all’ is used, or loanword numbers from Portuguese.
