The Tamangic languages, TGTM languages, or West Bodish languages, are a family of Sino-Tibetan languages spoken in the Himalayas of Nepal. They are called West Bodish by Bradley (1997). The languages are: *Tamang (several divergent varieties, with a million speakers) *Gurung (two varieties with low mutual intelligibility) *Thakali (including the Seke dialect; ethnically Tamang) *the closely related Manang, Gyasumdo, and Nar Phu *Chantyal The Ghale languages, spoken by ethnic Tamang, seems to be related to Tamangic, but not enough is known to be sure. Moribund Kaike may be the most divergent. ==Classification== Tamangic is united with the Bodish and West Himalayish languages in Bradley's (1997) "Bodish" and Van Driem's (2001) Tibeto-Kanauri. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tamangic languages」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
