Other comments: Téén or Lorhon is spoken by approximately 8,000 speakers in

Zanzan district, Côte d'Ivoire as well as Burkina Faso. Téén or Lorhon has a vigesimal system with special construction for numbers 5 to 9. The numbers 9 and 19 are formed by 'one mark ten and twenty', respectively. The monetary values, multiply by five. E.g. tewu nuse = 200 goats, waribo nuse = 1,000 francs.

Note that Téén / Lorhon is not a tonal language-one of only a few Ivorian languages. There is phonemic stress in the language, but it does not need to be marked as it is usually clear by the context.
