| Problems: | The list is full of gaps + a few misinterpretations. Dahl (1968) only provides a glossary of 17 pages. A more appropriate source is the online "Dictionnaire des dialectes sud-ouest du malgache" started by V.D. Mahavere (1925-1926) but vastly expanded by Noël Gueunier. I used it to compensate and check (SA) | |
