Huh?

edit

This pair of sentences makes no sense:

They include two languages, Chayahuita and Jebero, which are spoken by more than 11,300 people. Chayahuita is spoken by most of that number, but Jebero is almost extinct.

Huh? The first sentence suggests that each of these languages is spoken by more than 11,300 people. The second sentence seems to be saying that most of those people speak one of the languages, and just a few speak the other. Is that what they're trying to say? Whatever, they should both be reworded for clarity. If my understanding is right, maybe it should say this: The languages of this family are spoken by more than 11,300 people, but most of them speak Chayahuita. Jebero is nearly extinct.MiguelMunoz (talk) 08:50, 29 August 2018 (UTC)Reply
