Well, Rinya is the language and Rinyi are the people
speaking it. Regarding Nakiltipkaspimak, it's usually
called just Pimak ('language') and the people are
called Nakiltipkas ('The forest people').

This has been answered by some others. I think the Rinyi
were there first and then the Nakiltipkas came and now
they live in peaceful harmony. Nakiltipkas in the east
and north, and Rinyi in the south and west.

No? Oh, okay then. ;-)

I'm taking linguistics and I'm on my fourth term right mow. My
thesis is on active languages. It's only a BA-thesis, though I'm
on my second term writing it so it should really be done now.
I'll probably put it on the net when I'm done.
