What does "Nuclear Polynesian language" mean? -- RickK

"Nuclear" is a subfamily of the Polynesian languages; I believe "Polynesian Outlier languages" is a nother one. See the taxobox at Maori language, for example. -- pne 17:27, 24 Jun 2004 (UTC)


"Tuvaluan is a Nuclear Polynesian language of the Ellicean group spoken in Tuvalu. It has common words with other Polynesian languages"

This is true for all Polynesian languages. It would be interesting to point out differences rather than similarities. Apokrif 14:13, 28 Jan 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Infobox

I've added the infobox along the side. The info's from the Ethnologue website. It's my first box, feel free to spruce it up.--Stella luna 02:37, 23 July 2006 (UTC)
