Other comments: Wayuu or Goajiro is spoken by approximately 416,000 speakers in

La Guajira department: Guajira peninsula, Caribbean coast, Colombia as well as Venezuela. Wayuu or Guajiro has a decimal numeral system. Notesː The /n/, [n], varies with [ɲ] following high, front vowel and [ŋ] following non-front vowels when followed by a velar plosive or glottal fricative. The lateral flap [ɺ] is retroflexed, although the IPA does not provide a distinct symbol. This sound is pronounced with the tongue just behind the position for the Spanish ''r'', and with a more lateral airflow.
