Not the same and not putative[edit]

Hello. (I'm sorry for my English.) This article is about two languages: putative "Caucahué" and Chono. Language of Caucahué people remains unknown, it could be Chono language, but nobody knows it. Chono language is known for this (1975) and many toponyms are atributed to it in historical Chono territory. Please, split it in two articles, one about Kakauhua (name created by Ethnologue?) language and another about Chono. Regards. Lin linao (talk) 16:07, 27 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. The source of that Wikisource page would be appreciated.
Hammarström (2015) says,
Chono, an extinct isolate language of Southern Chile, is missing [from Ethnologue] (Bausani 1975, Viegas Barros 2005) unless it is the language (unsuccessfully, see below) intended by the Kakauhua [kbf]-entry.
However, I can't find anything "below" that explains this comment. — kwami (talk) 05:12, 26 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
That page of Wikisource comes from Diccionario lingüístico de Chiloé by Renato Cárdenas, 1994. A slightly different version is available in Itinerario y pensamiento de los jesuitas expulsos de Chile by Walter Hanisch, 1972 (!) that it can be downloaded from Memoria Chilena (I'm not sure about copyright). Off topic: in document copied by Hanisch there is the only linguistic evidence of taijatafes spoke kawésqar, sadly no linguist has seen it. Regards.

Below is the line that begins with "E16/E17 Kakauhua [kbf]..." Lin linao (talk) 06:18, 29 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
