Description:Description of the uses of trees (by A.).
The Goemai project is part of a PhD project (begun in August 1998). There are two aims to this project: (1) To investigate the semantics and pragmatics of locative verbs and derived elements. Most of the collected experimental data is concerned with this topic. (2) To document the Goemai language in form of a reference grammar, a dictionary and an annotated text corpus.
This file was generated from an IMDI 1.9 file and transformed to IMDI 3.0. The substructure of Genre is replaced by two elements named "Genre" and "SubGenre". The original content of Genre substructure was: Interactional = '', Discursive = '', Performance = 'descriptive'. These values have been added as Keys to the Content information.
Description of the uses of trees (by N.).
A. is my main consultant and colleague. He first introduced me to the language (in winter 1998), and established contacts with Goemai in Jos and Kwande. Most data is crosschecked with him. He was born in Kwande (ca. 1935), and he also grew up there. Both his parents are Goemai. He worked as a teacher in several places all over Central Nigeria. He is now retired and lives in Jos. He is the elder brother of D. (same father), and the father's brother of I. and K.

The sessions TreesAS and TreesSM have a similar content. The fieldnotes (25.6.2001) contain drawings (the location of the various trees, and the location of the speaker and the camera). The idea for collecting this type of data is based on an original idea by David Wilkins who collected video material (about a grub species and the trees it affects) for the analysis of demonstratives.
