| Description: | Saskia shows the 'run walk crawl climb' video clips to Mathias and asks him to describe them. Annotated in ELAN by Saskia. | |
| The Avatime project aims to describe and document Avatime. The researchers involved in this project are Rebecca Defina and Saskia van Putten. The project included fieldwork in Ghana in 2008 and was completed in 2009. Outcomes of the project are: (1) audio and video recordings of different genres, of which 13,5 hours have been transcribed and annotated, (2) an Avatime-English wordlist, (3) grammar notes and (4) two Master's theses, one on the expression of motion in Avatime (Saskia van Putten) and one on aspect and mood in Avatime (Rebecca Defina). | ||
| Saskia shows the 'run walk crawl climb' video clips to Mathias and asks him to tell her after each clip what the person or animal in the clip did. The video clips show mostly animals but also some people moving in different ways. The set of clips has been designed by researchers involved in the 'motion encoding in language' project at NTNU. | ||
| Saskia explains the procedure in English and does not say much during the recording. Every now and then she asks a question in English. Mathias described the videos in Avatime. | ||
| Mathias was one of our main consultants for this project. He has helped us transcribe recordings and participated in experiments and elicitation sessions. He was born in Vane and grew up there. His father has died and his mother has moved to Accra, so he lives with his grandparents. He is a student at the Senior Secondary School in Vane. | ||
| Saskia van Putten is one of the researchers in this project. She did her bachelor in Languages and Cultures of Africa and her research master in Linguistics, both at Leiden University. She started PhD studies at the Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics in 2009. Saskia grew up and still lives in the Netherlands. | ||
| The recording was made using a Marantz PMD flash recorder. The recording is mono, 16 bit and 48 kHz. | ||
| Annotated by Saskia. | ||
| Exported from ELAN. | ||
| The run_walk_crawl_climb elicitation set has been developed by researchers involved in the �motion encoding in language� project at NTNU. | ||
