Other comments: Xârâgurè has a traditional quinary-vigesimal counting system based on hands and persons similar to that of Xârâcùu, but the formations for 15 to 19 are different and the number for 100 was from a old source. Xârâgurè, like Xârâcùù is a tonal Austronesian language. Xârâgurè is spoken by about 700 speakers in east coast and west coast in South province, New Caledonia. |
