Syllable N[edit]

The section on Phonotacticds describes (N) as both being part of a syllable and being a syllable itself. This is confusing and should be resolved. Kevinbaet (talk) 22:05, 17 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Adjectives[edit]

The introductory paragraph to Morphology states that there are no adjectives in Nuaulu, but then the term is nonetheless used in quotations marks, which is confusing. Kevinbaet (talk) 22:05, 17 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Clarify terminology in verb section[edit]

The intro sentence to the section on verbs should be rewritten. It doesn't make much sense as is. (What is involvement and amount?) Later on, the term "point of view" is used, but it's not obvious what is meant by that. In the section on reduplication, it seems that the two types are full and partial reduplication, but that's not entirely clear from the wording. Kevinbaet (talk) 22:05, 17 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Reconstruction level[edit]

The noun section compares Nuaulu words to earlier proto-forms, which are labeled Proto-Austronesian. However, the classification of the proto-forms appear to be wrong, e.g. because Proto-Austronesian has no phoneme *v. What level of reconstruction do those words represent? Proto-Oceanic?
