Dear Roldan,

Thank you for this information on Scripture published in Kankanaey [kne].

The Bible in Kankanaey only contains 42% of the Old Testament, with 4 books completely missing; the only complete books are Jonah, Malachi, Psalms and Proverbs. The rest are all selections with bridge passages.

So, Ethnologue treats this as a New Testament with Old Testament portions.

Best wishes,

Chuck Fennig
