For example, sometimes you find the adjective "Tyva" alone in reference to the language when the context is clear (such as "Tyva-Angli sostuk/English-Tuvan dictionary"), but in more formal settings or lack of context you need to add the noun (Tyva by itself could mean the country or someone of that ethnicity.).

1. 'koi' (Komi-Permyak) should be 'Перем коми' (second word in lowercase)<br><br>See http://koi.wikipedia.org/wiki/<br><br>2. Some titles have word "language". I'm not sure if it's right.<br><br>* 'vep' should be 'Vepsän' ("kel" is word for "language")<br>* 'tyv' should be 'Тыва' ("дыл" is "language")<br>* 'tly' should be 'Толышә' ("зывон" is "language")<br>* 'sah' should be 'Саха' ("тыла" is "language")<br>* 'liv' should be 'Līvõ' ("kēļ" is "language")<br><br>2012/3/31 Amir E.
