:The Southern Tutchone language is related to all Athapaskan languages that have tone that is low-marked, while Northern Tutchone is related to all Athapaskan languages that have tone that is high-marked

The use of "all Athapaskan languages" here seems dubious to me - is this suggesting that the two lects of Tutchone sit on either side of an isogloss belonging to the entire language family? That would suggest an areal feature, not a genetic one. --Peter Farago (talk) 19:41, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

Split discussion

@Kepler-1229b I saw you created this split request. I definitely agree, since the article explicitly states they are classified as different languages. If there is enough coverage of each of them individually (which from a cursory glance it seems so) then they should be split into their respective articles.

:The main difficulty I have with splitting is the way that the article talks about the two varieties. 🪐Kepler-1229b | talk | contribs🪐 20:20, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
