Taa Language - Dialects

Dialects

Taa dialects fall into two rather divergent groups:

  • West Taa
    • West !Xoon
    • N|u‖'en (Nusan, N|usan)†
  • East Taa
    • East !Xoon
    • ’N|ohan
    • N|amani†
    • Kakia†
    • etc.

Traill worked with East ǃXoon, and the DoBeS project is working with ’N|ohan and West ǃXoon. Botswanan dialects are not well described, though a survey was scheduled to partially remedy that in 2007.
