the Aja languages[edit]

We currently call aja "Aja (Sudan)", and ajg "Aja (Benin)". Ethnologue gives "Adja" as an alternative name of both(!), but on Google Books, "Adja language" refers only to ajg (see Citations:Adja). We could, therefore, distinguish the two without parentheses by calling aja "Aja" and calling ajg "Adja"... but such a renaming risks thoroughly confusing any editor who might try to add a word in either language.

The Google Books hits, however, suggest that your idea is good. I don't know, really. -- Liliana 18:53, 20 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, what the heck, I've renamed them. That gets rid of two sets of parentheses. - -sche (discuss) 05:28, 22 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
