Talk:Central Gur languages

According to some the Dogon languages (or Dogoso as it is/was named in this article)  don't belong to the Gur group... G-u-a-k-@ 23:35, 30 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * Dogon has long been considered Gur (e.g. Greenberg in his 1963 The Languages of Africa classified Dogon as Voltaic (Gur)), but is now thought of as a relatively early branching of Niger-Congo, before the Volta-Congo branch according to Williamson and Blench (2000). I'm not sure who was the first, it might be John Bendor-Samuel, Elizabeth J. Olsen, & Ann R. White (1989) 'Dogon' in Bendor-Samuel (ed.) The Niger-Congo languages but I'd have to check that. Will do, and accordingly update this article and Dogon languages. &mdash; mark &#9998; 15:08, 1 May 2005 (UTC)

Dogoso is not Dogon; the similarity of the name is just coincidence. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.147.155.38 (talk) 17:44, 3 December 2015 (UTC)
