The names of the languages listed in bold capitals are indicated as correct in EthnoloÉ ue - Languages of the World, 15th edition. Since many languages have more than one name, their synonyms are also listed and keyed back to the appropriate name. Each language has a three letter ISO/DIS 639-3 identity code; in instances where the identity of the language is not definitive, a temporary code has been assigned and is in italics.
