I apologize for leaving this issue for so long, but it seems very
complicated. Below I have formulated a ballot for our request for Tupi
languages. We had a discussion of this previously. The language experts
among us will want to make sure that this is clear by what is meant by
"Tupi languages".
Members of the ISO 639/Joint Advisory Committee:
Please vote on the following addition to ISO 639-2 by 19 November
2001:
Language name:
English: Tupi languages
French: tupi, langues
Indigenous: (not applicable; language group)
[ ] I approve the language name(s).
[ ] I do not approve the language name(s).
Language code:
tup
[ ] I approve the language code.
[ ] I do not approve the language code.
Comment: A language group that includes Tupinamba (extinct) and
Nheengatu (modern) and their dialects.
See below original request and clarification by requestor.
PLEASE VOTE NO LATER THAN 19 NOV 2001! Reminder that only members
of the committee may vote (not observers).

These references are held by the libraries of several departments
of the
university, and can be searched at
http://DEDALUS.usp.br:4500/ALEPH/eng/USP/USP/DEDALUS/start
Many of the references above are diccionaries and grammars, that
have also lots of
text and sentences in Tupi.
Some references have prose or poetry in the language (refs. 1, 2,
4, 5, 7, 8,
18, 19, 22, 23, 24, 28, 31, 37, 38, 43, 44, 46, 50, 53, 57, 62,
63, 64, 68, 71).
There is one bibliography (ref. 9) and two antologies (refs. 31
and 43).
The bibliography lists 585 references, from which around 50% are
in Guarani,
and 30% are phylological studies of Tupi. The remaining 20% are
works
in or partially in Tupi.
addinfo = The Tupi language has several dialects
(COCAMA-COCAMILLA; NHENGATU; OMAGUA;
POTIGUÁRA; TUPINAMBÁ; TUPINIKIN). It mainly was spoken in the
Brazilian shore, by
the sixteenth to eighteenth century. The references given are for
the brazilian
dialects of tupi (NHENGATU; POTIGUÁRA; TUPINAMBÁ; TUPINIKIN), of
which Tupinambá is
the most well documented. Presently only Nheengatu is spoken
(5000 speakers),
in Brazilian Amazon, and Cocama-cocamilla in Peruvian Amazon
(18000 speakers).
The other dialects are extinct.
Tupinambá is also known as Língua Brasílica (Brazilian Language),
Língua Geral (General Language) and Tupi Antigo (Old Tupi). It
was
the most used language in Brazil till the eighteenth century,
being
used by around 2/3 of the inhabitants in the portuguese towns in
Brazil.
There are some confusions with Tupi and Guarani, mainly because
the word Tupi
is also used for the language family from where they were
descendent, but
they are different languages.
