Description
Summary:The one week stay in Kupuo Tringgus was an eye-opening experience. The initial perception of the Tringgus community is that they are part of the Bau group since their village is within the vicinity of the Bau division. However, further investigation and interview with the villagers revealed that they spoke another variation that was similar to that of the Bianah, which is an area located on the other side of the Bengoh range. Even then, communication was not a problem since they too spoke the Bijagoi variation. In fact, one could say that their language is unique because there seemed to be a mixture of the Bianah and Bijagoi variation.
