Other comments: Tekó or Emerillon, Emereñon, Teco is spoken by approximately 400
speakers in Brazil border area, at the confluence of Camopi and Oiapock rivers; Saint-Laurent-du-Maroni district: Maroni river area, on Suriname border. Emerillon usually use the traditional names only up to 4 or 5. The higher number I found with the traditional name is 6. Starting at 5, traditional numbering is based on the hand. Data for numbers between 5 and 6 vary. Each of those is built as ''our hand and one, two, three or four''. French numbers (do not undergo phonological adaptation) are used In everyday life to tell the time, the date and count.
