Description:N. talks about historical changes in Jos (based on the "Millingen" task).
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 = 'historical narrative'. These values have been added as Keys to the Content information.
N. acts as a consultant for me on a regular basis (since winter 2000). He was born in Demshin (ca. 1940), and he also grew up there. Both his parents are Goemai. He worked as a civil servant in several places all over Northern and Central Nigeria. He is now retired and lives in Jos. He is the husband of O.

This recording is based on an original idea by David Wilkins. He used this task in the Dutch town of Millingen (hence the name of that task), with the purpose to 'elicit' locally anchored spatial gestures. References: Kita, Sotaro. 1999.
