Keisuke2008

[nh36]

Keisuke2008 is in our datasets but it is not in the bibtex bibliography. I assume this is Keisuke's PhD dissertation on Jinghpaw. Note that Jinghpaw is not a Burmish language, although it is a language that is spoken by most of the speakers of Burmish languages and consequently it is a source of some loans into Burmish languages. The issue of loans from Jinghpaw into Burmish languages is touched on in Nishi 1999. Jinghpaw is also included in the big Chinese lexicographical sources such as Huang 1992(?) and the other one.

so what we'll do is: leave it in our collection, potentially when writing the ortho-profiles for Huang1992, include it as well, and later check whether we can, for example, automaticall identify borrowings, or with QPA (should also work, as borrowing may have certain patterns, right?).

I was wrong. This is something about Marma a dialect of Arakanese. I didn't want to include it, but you wanted to. Keisuke is the fellow's first name. His last name I would Romanize as Fujiawara but he prefers Huziwara. I think somehow it is already in STEDT, which is why you liked it.

Oh, the Japanese names, I keep confusing them. So let's close this one for the time being. Given the messiness of the sources we get when comparing Mann et al., I start seeing your point why you want to avoid this for Burmese varieties.
