COMMENTAIRES SUPPLÉMENTAIRES		Kwaruwi Kwundi is included within Laycock's (1973) "Sawos language", which he admits may consist of multiple languages, noting that "no real dialect surveys have been undertaken". The classifications here follow the survey work of Staalsen (1975). Ethnologue (18th edition) further splits the language into "Sos Kundi" and "Keak" (cf. Richardson and Tupper 2013), but a more conservative classification is followed here.
