Regarding:
LocationISO 639-3:
abhEthnologue says that Tajiki Arabic is spoken in "Kuliab and Leninabad cities." I quickly check and couldn't find sources. Is this affirmation correct?
Also, Kuliab is now known as Kulob (I don't know since when), and Leninabad as Khujand (since 1991). Names should at least be updated.
Editorial Action
We will update the location for Tajiki Spoken Arabic [abh] in Tajikistan, for inclusion in the next edition of the Ethnologue.
