Language: Kelinjau Modang

Source/Author:  DeAndré A. Espree-Conaway (2020) 
Identifiers:  ISO-639-3:mxd  Glottocode: moda1244 
Notes:  From original fieldwork in 2020.

This is likely a 'variant of a variant' so to speak.

The ISO code for all Modang varieties remains the same, despite likely mutual unintelligibility (see, Espree-Conaway 2022).

The Kelinjau Modang variant is described here, but in particular, the Kelinjau Modang variant as spoken in Long Tesak.

Also, a note on 'egg'. The only form presented in elicitation was kəlɔh ʤɪplit which speakers translated as telur ayam 'chicken egg'. Whether kəlɔh is a basic word for egg is an open question.
