This list which resembles Swadesh's list of Swadesh 1952 200 closely, was compiled for a study of several varieties of Malagasy dialects. Given that we only had the concept labels for linking, and nobody of the current team knows much about Malagasy dialects, the linking may be sub-optimal at times, and if users detect errors or have suggestions on refinements, we would be very glad if they contacted us.
