During those four decades, apart from Dyen 1965, the research results showed 89.1% (Figure 0); there is also Walker's (1976) inference at the observation point of Way Lima Lampung used 200 Swadesh Vocabulary Lexicon, the calculation result is 82.2%. Furthermore, Sudirman and Fernandez, the National Seminar on Austronesian Language and Culture II, studied the "Status of the Komering Isolect in the LL Group" the results of the 82.16 % Dialectometric Lexicostatistics calculations were close to the results of Walker's previous study of 82.2%, so that the historical relation of the isolect with the status of a conservative dialect can be observed in Figure 2.
