Donohue (1991) identifies Ndra'ngith as the same dialect as Ntrwa'ngayth, but Sutton (2001) presents it as being distinct. Sutton also distinguishes it from the similar-sounding Ndrangith language and Ndwa'ngith language.[2]

gollark: This is excessive though.

gollark: I think you're just rationalising the baidicoot thing.
