public_comment: "Due to traditional predominance of multilingualism, if we wanted to establish the number of total speakers of a given language of Lower Fungom, we would be obliged to consider the whole area and not confine ourselves to the village which gives the name to the language. This means that, at any given moment, the “speech community” associated with a particular language consists both of those resident in its associated village and of significant numbers of non-residents.",

public_comment: "Mundabli village: 350–450 speakers; Mufu village: 80–150 speakers; Buu village: 100–200 speakers. "The work that has been done on Mufu and Buu indicates that the varieties Mufu and Mundabli can probably be considered dialects of the same language, while Buu is probably best considered a distinct language. Speaker reports match our own linguistic assessment in this regard."
