Description: | Sammy tells a story about a duck and a rabbit. No audience or researcher is present. | |
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). | ||
Sammy tells a story about a rabbit and a duck. The two are friends, but then the duck finds out that the rabbit is deceiving him, and plays a trick on the rabbit to get him to admit this. Afterwards, they cease to be friends. | ||
Only Avatime is spoken in this recording. | ||
Sammy is the only actor present. He tells the story to the recorder, which he borrowed from us. | ||
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. | ||
The recording was made using a Marantz PMD flash recorder. The recording is mono, 16 bit and 48 kHz. | ||
