Removed ref to Paya possibly being related to Chibchan, as it's already included under the name Pech. Mentioning that Cofan has been included due to borrowed vocabulary. kwami 02:43, 25 Mar 2005 (UTC)


It would be really nice to list some of the features common to this group and what makes it distinct from neighbouring groups. — Hippietrail 20:12, 14 March 2006 (UTC)


minor grammatical correction. Idiotoff 06:17, 19 April 2006 (UTC)


Removed the expression "Needless to say" from the last sentence ("Most of these indigenous languages are severely endangered and all of them require greater study and documentation"), because while it may be needless to say it, no reader should be encouraged to take this situation for granted or to view the tragedy of endangered languages as somehow "normal". I hope no one disagrees! --A R King 06:15, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
