==External links== *[http://www.bantu-languages.com/en/bantu_intro.html Guthrie's 1948 classification], in detail, with each language numbered *[https://web.archive.org/web/20180203191542/http://goto.glocalnet.net/mahopapers/nuglonline.pdf Maho 2009]. Guthrie 1971, in detail, with subsequent additions, corrections, and corresponding ISO codes as of ''Ethnologue'' 15. Coding conventions are explained in Nurse & Philippson (2003). They are (with invented examples): *:A capital letter is added for an additional dialect of an existing language. That is, A15C would be a dialect of language A15 in addition to Guthrie's dialects A15a and A15b. *:A third digit is added for an additional language. If its closest relative can be identified, the digit is added to that code. That is, A151 would be a non-Guthrie language closest to Guthrie's A15. *:If a close relative has not been identified, the digit is added to the decade code. That is, A101 would be a language geographically in group A10, but not particularly close to any of Guthrie's A10 languages, or not known well enough to further classify. *:Pidgins and creoles are indicated by adding a capital letter to the decade code. That is, A10A would be a pidgin or creole based on a language in group A10.
