Revision as of 08:09, 18 September 2012

Review wordlists from individual sessions here to avoid repeated elicitation. Remember to post whether your session is group or individual, and try to indicate roughly when it will be happening so that later sessions can adjust their lists to avoid duplicating the work of earlier sessions if they wish.

The old Bari vocab can be found here if you want to transfer wordlists to this page.

I want to elicit some more animal names, their plural forms, and maybe some intransitive verbs at the end. Things that I don't get to on Tuesday, I plan on trying to elicit the next morning during my individual session.

Nouns:

  • livestock (general term)
  • lion/lions
  • rat/rats (mouse/mice?)
  • sheep/sheeps
  • snake/snakes (venomous term?)
  • rabbit/rabbits
  • worm/worms
  • bee/bees
  • duck/ducks
  • elephant/elephants
  • mosquito/mosquitoes
  • frog/frogs
  • turtle/turtles
  • bat/bats

Verbs:

  • he runs
  • he goes (to location)
  • he jumps
  • he sleeps
  • he reads/studies
  • he dies
  • he eats (intrans variant?)

(I may also try different persons for the verbs, but nothing fancy - just to get a small amount of morphological complexity and to start gradually chipping away at the verbal paradigm.)

Then I will elicit the following words, with a particular emphasis on stop quality.
