Public Comment
"I assume that the number of the Lopnor dialect speakers in 1982 must have been less than 24,000 as this is the number of Uyghur people in the entire Lopnor region. Therefore, this number may include some speakers of the central dialect and migrant Uyghur people from other parts of Xinjiang." (p.19)
