   Wot, no Hausa? Daya, Bu, Ooku, Fudu, Beart, Shida, Buwai, Tukwus, Tara, Goma (spelling is totally phonetic, I have no idea how these are actually spelled).

   Ah! Wait a minute: a quick check with Google finds it: http http://www.zompist.com/mide.htm – Chadic, West, Group A

   d`aya, biyu, ukù, hud`u, bìyar, shidà, bakwài, takwàs, tarà, go:ma.

   No problem, since it’s the short term memory that goes first . . . .
