source: two to three consultants 2014 note: see yai tia loi. tania hoi is probably metathesis of yai tia loi / yai tia hoi ‘shin’ which breaks down as yai ‘leg’ tia ? loi ‘bone’ (l>h is a sound change in process. Some communities retain l where others have gone to h, others yet have converted h to a glottal and still others have dropped the segment entirely. The difficulty of traversing between communities up until a couple yers ago allows us a snapshot of various stages of sound change in process. Most of these differences are likely to level off in the next few years because of new coastal roads.)
