Some problems
[edit]- Why use the uncommon form "Ledji-Ledji" for a language more usually known as "Latjilatji" or "Ladji Ladji"?
- The phrase "the Church of England Society" is highly ambiguous, and I can't identify which society associated with that church was responsible; can you?
- Why and how is the establishment of the Old Pooncarie Mission (at Pooncarie, NSW) relevant to the history of the language? Can somebody please connect the dots?
- The Latjilatji lands lay almost entirely south of the Murray River (see map at Victorian Aborigines), and therefore in Victoria; so why does this article mention NSW before Victoria?
- Perhaps (speculating) this means that when the Latjilatji people were forced from their lands by graziers, and shipped off to a mission somewhere out of the way, that "somewhere " was Pooncarie, a long hike away across the border in NSW? (If so, Ladji Ladji would very likely have been last spoken fluently, as the first and daily language of a group of people, in NSW rather than Victoria.)
