Other comments: Ushojo is a recently discovered language spoken by approximately 3,000 speakers in 12 villages, Swat district, upper Bishigram valley, east of Madyan, Khyber Pakhtunkwa province, Pakistan, not known by linguists until 1989. Reportedly came from Kolai, Indus Kohistan several hundred years ago via Ushu, Swat, hence the name Ushojo. Ushojo has a vigesimal numeral system with loanwords for numbers 50, 100 and 1000 from neighboring language. The second set numbers 1 to 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90 and 100 were provided by SIL linguist Ms. Sandra Decker in 1992, which are different from the recently recorded data provided by Khadim Hussain.
