Now what is the classification of all these tribes? Preliminary to the answer on this point, there are eleven dialects spoken in the parts about Manipur--besides the proper language of Manipur itself--to be enumerated. These are as follows:--1. Songpu. 2. Kapwi. 3. Koreng. 4. Maram. 5. Champhung. 6. Luhuppa. 7, 8, 9. Northern, Central, and Southern Tangkhul. 10. Khoibu; and 11. Maring. Now these twelve (the Manipur being included) have been tabulated by Mr. Brown, in such a way as to show the per-centage of words that each has with all the others; and not only these, but nearly all the tongues which we have had to deal with, are similarly put in order for being compared. The part of the table necessary for the present use is as follows:-- |N.|C.|S.| |C | | | | | |M | |h | |T |T |T | |M |B | |S | |a | |a |L |á |á |á | |i |u | |i | |n |S | |K | |m |u |n |n |n |K |M |s |r |K |n | |i |o |K |o |M |p |h |g |g |g |h |a |Á |h |m |a |g |J |G |p |n |a |r |a |h |u |k |k |k |o |r |Á |b |i |e |r |p |i |á |u |g |p |e |r |u |p |h |h |h |i |i |k |o |m |s |e |h |l |r |r |p |w |n |á |n |p |u |u |u |b |n |á |r |í |e |n |o |í |o |í |ú |í |g |m |g |a |l |l |l |ú |g -----------+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+-- Áká | |47|20|17|12|15|15| 5|11| 3|10| 3| 8| 8| 8| 5| 6|10| 8|10 Ábor |47| |20|11|10|18|11| 6|15| 6|11| 5| 8| 6| 8| 8| 8|10|10|18 Mishimí |20|20| |10|10|10|13|10|11| 0|11| 0| 3| 5| 6| 8| 6|13|10| 8 Burmese |17|11|10| |23|23|26|12|16| 8|20| 6|11|11|11|10|13|13|16|16 Karen |12|10|10|23| |17|21| 8|15|10|15| 8|12| 4|12| 8|12|12|10|15 Singpho |15|18|10|23|17| |70|16|25|10|18|11|11|13|15|13|25|13|20|18 Jilí |15|11|13|26|21|70| |22|16|10|21|13|11|11|18|20|20|13|20|20 Gáro | 5| 6|10|12| 8|16|22| |10| 5| 6| 5| 8| 5| 8|13|11| 5| 5| 5 Manipurí |11|15|11|16|15|25|16|10| |21|41|18|25|28|31|28|35|33|40|50 Songpú | 3| 6| 0| 8|10|10|10| 5|21| |35|50|53|20|23|15|15|13| 8|15 Kapwí |10|11|11|20|15|18|21| 6|41|35| |30|33|20|35|30|40|45|38|40 Koreng | 3| 5| 0| 6| 8|11|13| 5|18|50|30| |41|18|21|20|20|11|10|15 Marám | 8| 8| 3|11|12|11|11| 8|25|53|33|41| |21|28|25|20|16|23|26 Champhung | 8| 6| 5|11| 4|13|11| 5|28|20|20|18|21| |40|20|20|16|15|25 Luhuppa | 8| 8| 6|11|12|15|18| 8|31|23|35|21|28|40| |63|55|36|33|40 N.
