Other comments: Yalunka has a decimal system similar to that of Soso language. There is no tone in the Jalonke variety, since the speakers have been in contact with Fula for centuries, and tone carries a very low functional load in Soso, so a breakdown of the tonal system, facilitated by contact. The data was based on Jalonke variety.
