Other comments: Wallisian or East Uvea has a decimal system similar to that of Tongan. Wallisian is spoken by about 10,000 speakers in Wallis Island and New Caledonia. Wallisian, or ʻUvean is the
Polynesian language spoken on Wallis Island (also known as ʻUvea). The
language is also known as East Uvean to distinguish it from the related
West Uvean language spoken on the outlier island of Ouvéa near New
Caledonia. The latter island was colonised from Wallis Island in the
18th century. Indigenous to Wallis island, the language is also spoken
in New Caledonia since the 1950s due to a migration of many Wallisians
(especially in Nouméa, Dumbéa, La Foa, and Mont Dore). |
