From other pages on the internet, it looks as if a second part of the native name (бызшәа) of this language has been skipped: [1], [2], [3]. However I also found one page using one word: [4]. Anyone know something about this, comments? --Dittaeva 17:38, 25 Jan 2005 (UTC)
- Yes, I put it in there, I must have goofed, sorry. Feel free to put the second word in there. Just remember to make it into Unicode entity codes for people that have problems with Cyrillic. (Yes, I do see the difference between aṗsua and aṗsua byzš˚a, don't try to tell me I have seeing problems.) Wikiacc 20:36, 25 Jan 2005 (UTC)
- The second part (бызшәа) is just the Abkhazian word for "language"; either form is OK. :) thefamouseccles 04:55, 02 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Classification
I removed Dene-Caucasian from the genetic classification part of the table and instead moved mention of it to the body of the article; Dene-Caucasian is an unproven and controversial hypothesis and the basic description of the language should reflect current mainstream opinion.

- Yes, you are completely right. It was added by Nixer, who believes that this fringe theory should be accepted as mainstream. --Gareth Hughes 11:43, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
Word order?
Does anyone know the basic word order of Abkhaz?
