uses lyrics of the songs "[//youtu.be/VOSvCudF5A0 {{tok|likujo}}]" and "[//youtu.be/qo2hqYnTOlA {{tok|luka tu wan}}]" by {{tok|[[jan Usawi]]}} to represent numbers, starting with {{tp|wan}} meaning 1 from "{{tok|likujo}}", and ending with {{tp|e ale mi}} meaning 124 from "{{tok|luka tu wan}}"
 
it can also indicate a few nonpositive numbers using lyrics before the first chorus of "{{tok|likujo}}", starting with {{tp|nanpa wan la kala ike en monsuta}} for &minus;9 and ending with {{tp|tenpo ale la mi toki suli e ijo pi olin mi}} for 0

cons:

<li>if you somehow don't know the lyrics...that's a lot to memorize<li>
