Dear All,


Shangke (or similar spelling) is the name given to a Tangsa variety; the autonym is Shecyü. As far as I know, this variety is a lingua franca in parts of Burma, particularly Nanyun township area in northern Sagaing division. On the Indian side a closely related variety, Chamchang (spelled Cyamcyang in Myanmar and called Kimsing by many people), is the language used by Churches adhering to the Tangsa Baptist Churches Association (TBCA).


I'd clearly be interested in seeing the document.

Hi Nathan (three different Nathan's are involved in this!),
No, I checked, they aren't available, as least not from the press, electronically, but Nathan Straub sent me a scan of the Wadamkhong book. I assume we can share it on the list if there is interest.

All the best,
Randy

Thanks for the heads-up on these. Shanke is probably the prestige variety of Tangshang/Tase Naga [nst]. Kadaw is perhaps Kadu.

None of these are published electronically?

Thanks,
Nathan

Thanks, Nathan. Wadamkhong is a Rawang variety. Not sure about the others. Odd this person has worked on so many different languages and we haven't heard of his work before!

All the best,
Randy
