Panlex / Rosetta Swadesh Collection #732

Open LinguList opened 4 years ago

LinguList commented 4 years ago

They have the Swadesh list of 100 items, but the items themselves differ from the "normal" Swadesh, so it is worthwhile to link this list explicitly now. The question is only how to quote it. I think either panlex or Rosetta seems like a useful editor for this collection.

I am not quite sure which list is the right one for adding to Concepticon. They have some 2000 lists, and all use a subset of Swadesh items + sometimes more regionally important ones (crocodile, manatee etc).

There is a general list of 207 concepts that includes (it seems) only the basic Swadesh ones, not any of the more areally specific ones: https://archive.org/details/rosettaproject_eng_swadesh-2

And the Puoc list which the second link leads to consists of 95 items: https://archive.org/details/rosettaproject_puo_swadesh-1

Is one of those lists the right one or is there another one you would like me to map instead?
