Other comments: Toposa is spoken by approximately 300,000 speakers in Kapoeta North, Kapoeta South and Kapoeta East counties; along Singaita and Lokalyen rivers, Eastern Equatoria state, South Sudan and as well as Kenya. Toposa has a decimal system of counting with five-base substructure. The number 'hundred' is borrowed from Arabic. The origin of numeral for 'thousand' is uncertain.
