Talk:Miskito grammar

"Start class"?

A "start class" kind of article? Somebody must be joking. This must be one of the best articles on a language's grammar that I've found so far anywhere in Wikipedia. I would even nominate it for Featured Article rating, but the guys who placed the tags for the WikiProjects Languages and Central America have rated it "start class" as if it were some kind of stub or poor article??? I just can't believe it. 213.37.6.23 (talk) 14:06, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

As the main (or perhaps almost only?) editor of the Miskito grammar article, I would just like to say that I'm glad it is attracting attention, and that if it is deemed necessary and worthwhile to do some further work on it, I will be "around", either ready to help with that, or at least sitting "in the background" vaguely aware of what is going on (and available to be consulted), all depending on how busy I am with other things (and I am unfortunately on the whole rather busy, but I'll do my best). Oh, and thank you for the compliment :-) Alan --A R King (talk) 06:49, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

I actually came to this discussion to page to say the exact same thing. This is a fantastic article! I wish it would be used as an example for how to write other language grammar articles. 76.167.253.199 (talk) 23:26, 20 September 2011 (UTC)

Miskito alphabet

The Wikipedia articles on Miskito language and this one contradict each other. Miskito language says the alphabet has 19 letters. This article says 26 letters.Jeff (talk) 18:15, 9 March 2022 (UTC)

Merger proposal

Miskito language (typological overview) should be merged into this page, per my rationale at its talk page. Basically, while that article contains valuable content, in my view it isn’t an appropriate topic for a standalone. RadioactiveBoulevardier (talk) 21:04, 28 May 2023 (UTC)

Inconsistent statistics

It says the Miskito language has 'more than 8,000,000 speakers' whereas other articles state it has only '150,000 (2015–2021)' native speakers and an ethnic group itself numbering in just '700,000–800,000'. Scarredspector125 (talk) 04:48, 8 January 2024 (UTC)
