If you search online, you will see both Tut and Tutnese. In modern discussion, the two names are commonly used for the same broader coded speech tradition.
Why Keep Both Names?
Tut appears in older published references and family accounts. Tutnese is widely used today as a modern name that makes the subject easier to identify in search, teaching, and conversation.
Tutnese.org uses Tutnese as the primary modern site name while retaining Tut as an alternate and historical term.
A Name Does Not Establish Ownership
Using Tutnese as a modern label does not mean Tutnese.org claims to have invented the older tradition. The site separates the historic language tradition from its own modern teaching conventions and learning tools.
Search Both
If you are researching the history, search for both “Tut Language” and “Tutnese.” Older records may use different names than modern learners do.
