Comment:
Kewat (kyv-kyv) = 6b* (Threatened).

E16/E17/E18/E19/E20/E21/E22/E23/E24/E25/E26/E27 has an entry Kayort [kyv], a language related to Bengali in Morang district of Eastern Nepal. The Rangeli-Rajbanshi [rjs] data from Matthew Toulmin 2006 covers this area (cf. George van Driem 2001: 1146 ) and there is no no other Bengali related lect spoken there (cf. Gautam, Rajesh and Thapa-Magar, Asoke K. 1994: 176 , Charu Chandra Sanyal 1965 ). Thus the Kayort [kyv] entry is to be equated with Rajbanshi [rjs]. See also: Rajbanshi [rjs].
