List of languages

edit

It lacks a romani language, probably vlach, spoken by gypsies (Is this name pejorative in English?) and Huilliche is a dialect of Mapudungun (If it should be a language, it should be located in section "endangered").

If we consider Huilliche and Mapudungun as separated languages, it must be included Araucanian family. --Lin linao 05:22, 15 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

Why does this template include languages such as Quechua and Aymara, which have only a small minority of its speakers in Chile? I guess we need a Languages of Bolivia and Languages of Peru navigation template too. Why not just one kind of Quechua?--Gacelo 17:36, 14 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

Because the editor is working accords Ethnologue that reognize a lot of "Quechuan languages" (and a Huilliche language and a "Español de Loreto-Ucayali"...). That publication has a point of view very lax about requirements for become a separate language. Bye. Lin linao 19:36, 15 May 2007 (UTC)Reply
