Description:This is a three and a half hour audio recording of an elicitation session with Mary Clara Hinduwan, Helen Pohu, John Ryden, and Christopher Asua. Topics covered include possessives and benefactives, control constructions, and subordination. The session was recorded inside Mary Clara's haus kuk (outdor kitchen) in Papitalai village. Carol was also present, as well as many children.

This documentation consists primarily of recorded narratives and conversations in the Papitalai dialect, spoken in Papitalai, Riu Riu, and Naringel villages.
