Sources for the Numbers List This page gives the sources for each language on the Numbers from 1 to 10 page . Sometimes half the work in dealing with a new language is finding out what it is, and relating it to the sometimes wildly varying classifications from Ruhlen , Voegelin, and the Ethnologue.

Totals :4620 entries -226 conlangs -386 dead langs -259 dialect/variant = living languages I have 78.8% of Ruhlen's 4750 languages. Dialects I have but not in the list: 775, so the grand total is about 5365.
