Other comments: Terebu may have a quinary-decimal system like the Manan language. The data for Terebu was incomplete. New data needed to fill in the gaps for the other higher numerals after five. Terebu is one of three Kairiru languages spoken by about 130 speakers in Turubu village of Turubu Rural LLG, East Sepik Province, Papua New Guinea.
