| Description: | In the recording, speaker FT describes how people work in their gardens, or fields, in the bush to produce the crops that sustain them. | |
| The goal of this project is the documentation of the three major languages in the Southwest of the pacific island of Ambrym, Vanuatu. The major objectives include the creation of both academic and local dictionaries, grammatical descriptions of the three languages as well as extensive recordings of the languages with an emphasis on language use in connection with specific cultural pracitces such as sand drawings, dances and songs. | ||
| Speaker FT explains how to prepare a patch of land for farming, how to plant and to gather crops. | ||
| This informant from Emyotungan is a fieldworker of the Cultural Center of Vanuatu and has been involved in attempts to conserve the language prior to the project. As many of the informants, he is very much concerned with the growing influence of Bislama on the language and is trying to avoid using loan words. His knowledge of stories and his commitment to preserve the language have been very helpful. | ||
| Kilu von Prince has chosen the grammar of Daakaka to be the subject of her dissertation. Her purpose in the DoBeS project "Languages of West Ambrym" is to document and to help preserve the languages Daakaka and Ral kalein by collecting language data, establishing lexical databases and providing local communities with orthographies, dictionaries and printed accounts of traditional stories for use in education. | ||
