Average lexical similarity of the three speech\nvarieties is between 39% and 58%, as measured with a 170-item standard word\nlist. The accepted threshold for regarding speech varieties as dialects of a\nsingle language is 70% lexical similarity (SIL 1991); these scores are well\nbelow that threshold. Testing of intelligibility found that speakers of each\nvariety had 13 - 56% comprehension of recorded texts in the other varieties. SIL\nguidelines give a recorded text test score of 75% as the lowest acceptable\nindicator of comprehension; again these scores are well below that threshold.\nThe survey team concluded that Andai, Nanubae and Tapei should be considered\nthree distinct languages."}, "ethnologue_comment": null, "links": [{"url": "https://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q11170629", "label": null}], "meds": [["500616", "wordlist_or_less", 2007, 0, "ISO 639-3 Registration Authority 2007"]]}, "id": "araf1243", "name": "Arafundi", "description": null, "markup_description": null, "latitude": null, "longitude": null, "classification": [], "iso639-3": "arf"}
