I’ve been reading The Languages of the World, and while I have enjoyed it so far, I came across Ethnologue today while searching for information about the Indian language Maithili. Ethnologue seems to be more comprehensive and has cool things like language maps. I want!
It is expensive ($100). The reviews seem to be really good. I am a poor grad student. But this is a book I’d love to own, and an ebook will just not do. Hmm, maybe a New Year present to myself.
