Other comments: Urarina or Oruarinya is spoken by approximately 4,800 speakers in Loreto region: Urarinas district, Chambira, Pucayacu, and Urituyacu rivers, Peru.

Urarina numerals represent a mixed class that can be divided into native and borrowed forms. The native numbers include lexemes from 'one' to 'five', while the other numerals are loans from Quechua. This includes word for up to 'thousand'. The two types of numerals further differ from each other in that the native numerals are verbs, whereas the loans are to be analyzed as nouns. The term for 'one can be described as a combination of the root /le/ with the participle form of the continuous suffix ( surfacing as -hii here ). The problems regarding the status of ' le= ' being a form ''between'' clitic and root were discussed. Note that the word for 'two' is related to 'help', huruatahania.
