Marrison, G.A.-Section on Ao in The Classification of the Naga Languages
of North-East India. (Unpublished doctoral thesis, University of london,
1967).
The earliest linguistic account of Ao is probably that of Mr.Avery , which
was followed by Mrs.Clark’s Grammar. The present author could not
consult these two works since they were not available to him. Mr.Grier
son’s account of this language in LSI was largely based on Mrs.Clark’s
Grammer. These earlier works provide the source for Mr.Marrison’s
classificatory account of Ao and other Naga languages.
