Comment:
Nupbikha (5675-npb) = Vulnerable (20 percent certain, based on the evidence available)

(see van Driem 2007)

Nupbikha [npb] is listed in E16/E17/E18/E19/E20/E21/E22/E23/E24/E25/E26/E27 as a separate language of Bhutan in Trongsa district. But the term Nupbikha denotes no more than 'language of the west' and the variety spoken there is linguistically a variety of Bumthang [kjz] ( George van Driem 2001: 908 ). See also: Bumthangkha [kjz].
