SUPPLEMENT TO "EAST BODISH REVISITED": DATA
<p>This dataset is the supplement to the publication "East Bodish Revisited".</p>
<p>BULLETIN OF TIBETOLOGY, Vol 54 No 1 2023</p>
<p>BODIC LINGUISTICS</p>
<p>This issue of the <em>Bulletin of Tibetology, </em>guest-edited by Prof. George van Driem, is devoted chiefly to linguistics, but more especially to the field of Tibetology in its quintessence. The con­tributions are devoted not just to Sik­kim and the languages of Sikkim, but together they present the most substantive new collection of studies on Bodish languages and on Bodic as a linguis­tic subgroup. In detailing the most recent linguistic insights and clarifying the relationship between Tibetan, Drenjongke and Dzongkha, this issue of the <em>Bulletin</em> updates our understanding of the Bodish languages. At a higher taxonomic level in the family tree, a new understanding is also presented of Bodic as comprising an important branch within the Trans-Himalayan language family.</p>

<p>This dataset contains all the cognate sets in the paper, with the same sequential numbering as in the paper. This provides for an easy cross-reference between this paper and the supplement. In addition to the information provided in the individual cognate sets in this paper, the cognate sets in the supplement contain important additional information. Whereas the cognate sets in this paper only have a reference to the source code in Table 1 when the source for an individual form is distinct from the main source consulted for each linguistic variety, the cognate sets in the supplement have a more specific reference to the page numbers as well. This makes it easier for people with no or limited knowledge of the source languages (in particular, Dzongkha and Chinese) of some of the source materials to cross-check the referenced forms in their original sources: This also contributes to greater transparency and accountability regarding the use of secondary sources. The cognate sets in the supplement also contain more forms in individual linguistic varieties, for example, forms that for some reason (e.g., borrowing, or lexical innovation) are not illustrative for the sound correspondence that the cognate set is deemed to exemplify, likely cognate forms in other languages, semantic content of the form in the specific variety if this differs from the semantic content of the concept it is cognate with, and other etymological notes and remarks of interest. The abbreviations for the data sources are </p>
