Dialects/Varieties[edit]

The book Hruso by Robert Shafer, notes the two dialects that Hurso is divided into. The first one is known to be recorded by Campbell and the second dialect is known to be recorded by Anderson, Hesslmeyer, and Payne. Also Dialect A has some differentiation in vocabulary when compared to Dialect B. Dialect A is also known to be briefly recorded and is more archaic than dialect B which has very little recording evidence behind it.

But these languages are too poorly recorded to form a basis for a conclusion.[5]

External links[edit]

Websites like Ethnologue, Language Museum, the Rosetta Project Archive, and Omniglot often have useful information on languages; if so, they should be provided in the external links.

The Ethnologue report for the language is far from authoritative and should only be used as a useful tool to start new articles. Ideally it should not be the only source. SIL International has in several cases made classifications that are at odds with the rest of the linguistic community as well as the speakers themselves. In certain cases the reports actually contain factual errors and should be fact-checked against other linguistic literature.

To cite Ethnologue, use the {{Ethnologue18}} (or later) template as follows: 

*{{e18|code=xxx}}

replacing xxx with the ISO 639-3 code. If Ethnologue's name for the language is different from Wikipedia's, write: 

*{{e18|code=xxx|label=XYZ}}

where XYZ is Ethnologue's name. Otherwise Wikipedia's name gets inserted by default.

Omniglot provides information about writing systems, not languages per se, and so is not appropriate for languages without a written tradition.
