Dear Renhard,

Thank you this information on the dialect names of Kedang [ksx] in East Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia.

Would the names of these dialects be Kedang Pegunungan (HIghland Kedang) and Kedang Pesisir (Coastal Kedang)?

There are other languages in Indonesia which use these names (e.g. Konjo Pegunungan = Highland Konjo [kjk] and Konjo Pesisir = Coastal Konjo [kjc].

Best wishes,
