Description:D. writes Goemai proverbs.
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 = 'proverb'. These values have been added as Keys to the Content information.
D. is one of my main collaborators in Kwande (since winter 1998). He acts as a consultant, and organizes contacts to other Goemai. He was born in Kwande (ca. 1948), and he also grew up there (until the age of 12). Both his parents are Goemai. He works as a civil servant (with the Ministry of Agriculture), and he has lived in different places all over Nigeria (Plateau State, Benue State, Cross River State). He now lives partly in Kwande, and partly in Jos. He is the younger brother of A. (same father), and the father's brother of I. and K.
