Comment:
Shubi (suj-suj) = 6b* (Threatened).

E16/E17/E18/E19/E20/E21/E22/E23/E24/E25/E26/E27 has two entries Shubi [suj] and Subi [xsj] which are both described as being spoken in the Kagera region of Tanzania. Literature on these entities either refer to Shubi (closely related to to Hangaza) or to Subi which is close enough to be intelligible to Zinza [zin] ( Maho, Jouni F. and Sands, Bonny 2003 ). See also: Subi [xsj], Zinza [zin].
