Description:Mawulolo told the frog story to Kennedy, then they interviewed each other
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).
English was the language of discussions and elicitation, Avatime was the target language
Rebecca Defina is one of the researchers in this project. She did her bachelors in Linguistics and Mathematics at the University of Sydney and her research master in Linguistics at Leiden University. She started PhD studies at the Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics in 2010. She grew up in Australia and now lives in the Netherlands.
Mawulolo is a student at the Junior Secondary School in Vane. We worked with her twice. Both times she was very talkative, but also not very serious about the things we asked her to do. She is 16 years old and comes from Vane.
Kennedy is a student at the Junior Secondary School in Vane whom we worked with several times. He grew up in Vane, his parents are both from Vane as well.
The recording was made using a Marantz PMD flash recorder. The recording is mono, 16 bit and 48 kHz.
This is the session that frog_MO and interview_MO-KA come from.
