"some of them mutually unintelligible" if they are dialects of a language they must be mutually unintelligible. Ericd 21:50, 22 July 2005 (UTC)

Fair enough, though you should check out dialect continuum for a counterexample :P. I've changed 'dialects' to 'varieties'. — mark ✎ 14:02, 27 July 2005 (UTC)

Actually, unless I'm mistaken, dialects of each other do not have to be mutually intelligible. At least, that's what a professor said on the topic. Alexander 007 17:11, 8 December 2005 (UTC)

The issue with 'dialect' is precisely that professors say one thing, speakers another, SIL yet another, and the government probably again another thing. — mark ✎ 21:20, 8 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Stub categorization

I added 2 stub categories. This article has quite a bit, but could be expanded to include some info in the suggested template. --A12n 04:25, 6 July 2007 (UTC)
