tanggu or tangga #281

Closed SimonGreenhill closed 4 years ago

Should society Ig21, which is currently mapped to "Tangu [tang1355]" be mapped to "Tangga [tang1348]".

See https://github.com/glottolog/glottolog/issues/554

Looks like it should be tang1348 , the ethnographies mention Boeng island, which means it's Tangga not Tangu (spoken in the Lakes Plains region of New Guinea).

Agree @xrotwang and @kirbykat ?

xrotwang commented 4 years ago

Agree - the "island vs. inland New Guinea" distinction seems convincing.

kirbykat commented 4 years ago

That sounds reasonable to me too. It looks like this is the first change to this glottocode, which probably means no one caught it until now.

ok, done!
