Descriptif:
An initial Ipulo phonology sketch was written in 2015. This updated work is intended to be a corrective to errors in that initial phonology sketch. Since 2015, additional and ongoing linguistic research and literacy efforts have yielded a more accurate understanding of the Ipulo language. Further research will no doubt lead to additional revisions in the future.
