ABSTRACT
Where a language is referred to by a name written with an initial capital only, nothing is known, apart from what may be given in Johnstone's work, beyond the probability that there is such a language. Since the map only bears the reference numbers of the languages, it was necessary to provide a key to it in the form of a complete classified list. The absence of any genders regularly containing words which indicate smallness or bigness. On the west and south the limits of the zone are well defined, but the eastern boundary is somewhat arbitrary, although the languages just over this boundary are sufficiently different to justify their being placed in another zone. There are reasons for not placing any of these groups in the neighbouring zones, but few, apart from geographical contiguity, for making a zone out of them.
