Description:The Teop language is highly endangered. The aim of the project is to create a language documentation so that the language is not totally lost after is had died out.
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 = 'Semi-interactive', Discursive = 'explanation', Performance = 'oral history'. These values have been added as Keys to the Content information.
Ruth Saovana-Spriggs is currently a PhD Scholar at the Political Science and International Relations and a part-time Research Fellow at the Linguistics Department at the Australian national University, Whe speaks Teop as her first language and is an applied linguist with a specialisation in literacy. From 1980 to 1988, i.e. before the civil war, she was the provincial language and literacy coordinator of Bougainville (North Solomons Province). In the Teop Project, she does all preliminary transcriptions and translations and works together with Jessika Reinig and Marcia Schwartz on the edition of the recordings. In addition, she compiles word lists and particular semantic fields in the speech community and discusses the meanings of words with local language experts.
