Other comments: Tunni has a decimal system nearly identical with Somali. The actual forms for the compound numbers need checking with updated data. Tunni sometime is regarded as a dialect of Somali.

Tunni (also known as Af-Tunni) is a Somali language spoken by about 214,000 Tunni who reside in the Lower Shebelle, Middle Juba, Lower Juba and part of Bay regions in southern Somalia. The language is typically classified among the Digil group of Somali languages. Tunni is distinct from Somali, with a different phonology and sentence structure.
