Other comments: Zenaga or Mauritania Berber has a decimal system. There are feminine and masculine forms for numerals from one to ten in Zenaga. Note the following conversion between traditional symbols and IPA transcriptionsː

1. ''barred d'' =IPA [ð], 2. š = IPA [ʃ]

3. y = IPA [j], 4. ä = IPA [æ], 5. ī = IPA [iː]

6. ḍ = IPA [dˤ], 7. ẓ = IPA [zˤ]

Zenaga is a Berber language on the verge of extinction currently spoken in Mauritania and northern Senegal by a few hundred people. Zenaga Berber is spoken as a mother tongue from the town of Mederdra in southwestern Mauritania to the Atlantic coast and in northern Senegal. It shares its basic linguistic structure with other Berber idioms in Morocco and Algeria, but specific features are quite different. In fact, Zenaga is probably the most divergent surviving Berber language, with a significantly different sound system made even more distant by sound changes such as /l/ > /dj/ and /x/ > /k/ as well as a difficult-to-explain profusion of glottal stops.
The name "Zenaga" comes from that of a much larger ancient Berber tribe, the Iznagen (Iẓnagen), who are known in Arabic as the Sanhaja.
