Description:A story about a man, his son and a giant
This project is devoted to the multi-media documentation of Wovia and Isubu, two Bantu languages of the South-West Province of Cameroon. The project’s task consists in providing an extensive record of the linguistic practices of these two communities whose languages are now fast being replaced by Cameroon Pidgin English, a lingua franca spoken in the whole of the South-West Province. As the two languages do not yet have adequate descriptions, the project also consists in analyzing their respective structures by providing a thorough description of their phonology, morphology, syntax and pragmatics. Work on these topics has been started in mid-2010.
A story about a man, his son, and a giant
Isubu is a Bantu language (A20) spoken in the South West Province of Cameroon, precisely in the Fako Division,Tiko subdivision, around Bimbia estuary east of Limbe and west of Douala. Neighbouring languages, which are not endangered and much better explored linguistically, are Mokpe and Duala.
