- Changed "problems" from "SA: Maloh is closely related to South Sulawesi languages (Adelaar 1994, 1995). (Compare for instance the Buginese list). This does not sufficiently appear from the list because of the strong Malay (and/or Iban) lexical influence on Maloh. Apart from numerous words, the relation with South Sulawesi languages is also clear in the phonology of many other words in the list, an insight which tends to get lost as the system only counts shared vocabulary, not phonological commonalities. I do not know why Bob did not make the point: he and his student Alexander Smith are certainly aware of it. " - sander (2017-09-20 17:05:23)
