Other comments: Kafire Sénoufo or Cebaara Sénoufo has a vigesimal system. Note that the numbers that are given above are the neutral ones (used just for counting everything except money). It seems like there is a difference in counting when it comes to counting money. Kafire is spoken in Sirasso, Nafoun and Kanoroba (Northern Côte d’Ivoire). |
