COMENTARIOS ADICIONALES		"Some hypotheses relate Pele-Ata to languages of Britain, especially with Anem, and the East Papuan islands based on typology or pronouns (see Dunn et al. 2005a, 2002, 2005b, Ross 2001) but the resemblances are much too minor to conclude a genealogical relation." (Hammarström, forthcoming)
