| Description: | pear story questions and Dahl | |
| 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). | ||
| Rebecca showed Sammy still pictures from the pear story and asked him to tell her what was happening. They discussed these a bit as she was trying to find good Avatime descriptions of the pictures to use for a further study (the sequencing task). They then went through some of the Dahl questionnaire. | ||
| English was the language of discussions and elicitation, Avatime was the target language | ||

| Sammy was one of our main informants for this project. He was born in Vane and has lived there most of his life. He has also spent some time in Accra. He speaks good English and Ewe. | ||
