Sample text[edit]

Some sample text would be lovely, along with a IPA transliteration. 141.192.27.146 (talk) 13:23, 31 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

External links modified[edit]

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just modified one external link on Tocharian languages. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20080201082951/http://www.salon.com/tech/htww/2008/01/29/fragments_of_the_tocharian/index.html to http://www.salon.com/tech/htww/2008/01/29/fragments_of_the_tocharian/index.html

When you have finished reviewing my changes, you may follow the instructions on the template below to fix any issues with the URLs.

Horrible layout[edit]

Viewed in Safari iOS on a large-screen iPad in landscape mode, the layout is horrible as the diagram showing the map geographic ranges of the languages is inserted immediately after the first word "The" in its paragraph, then follows "discovery of Tocharian". Can anyone fix the CSS to not be insane?CecilWard (talk) 14:20, 15 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Spelling[edit]

The German-based spelling "Tocharian" follows the history of research and is generally used by linguists; it is pronounced /tɔˈxɑːriən/ with the fricative as in the Scottish hydronym "Loch"; to achieve the same pronunciation, French linguists write "Tokharian" (here with English ending), pronounced /təˈkɑːriən/, the /kh/ standing for the same fricative. 2A02:8108:9640:AC3:B9BD:D638:E4AE:C822 (talk) 15:30, 25 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
