Etymology

The article says that t«he language name Selkup comes from the Russian "селькупский язык" (selkupsky yazyk)», which is not even wrong: Rather the English word "Selkup", which is both a demonym/ethnonym and a glossonym, comes from the Russian word "селькуп", with the former semantics, while "селькупский язык" is a derivation of the previous and means litterally "Selkupian/Selkupish language".

(Also pls. note that the Russian text quoted above was typeset with a Latin "c" in place of the Cyrillic "с" — go fish!)

Missing section on orthography

The article is missing a description of Selkup Cyrillic. AengusB (talk) 10:53, 27 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Split discussion

Oppose There is no clear reason to split. Selkup is usually discussed in literature as one language and even though the ends of the dialect continuum are not mutually intelligible, this does not necessitate a language-level distinction (cf. Chinese language). ThaesOfereode (talk) 14:03, 15 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
