Description:Data Elicitation session using the "Trajectoire Matériel vidéo pour élicitation des données linguistiques" DVD. This DVD contains three versions of a series of short naturalistic video clips showing real people's movements in a natural setting as well as some filler clips to divert the speaker's attention. Here it is a session of clips 18-76: 18Filler_M_pick_fruit_back 19Path_F_cross_field_front 20Path_M_walk_front_people_into_cave_back 21Filler_F_footpass_ball_to_M 22_Path_F_cross_field_back 23_Path_C_run_behind_stone_sideLR 24Path_F_walk_out_take_walk_into_cave_back 25Filler_M_footpass_ball_to_F 26Path_F_walk_into_field_sideLR 27Path_M_walk_into_bush_back 28Path_C_jump_from_stone_run_front 29Filler_F_give_banana 30Filler_F_plait_hair 31Path_F_walk_outof_woods_sideRL 32Path_C_run_toward_stone_jump_over_stone_front 33Path_M_walk_across_bridge_walk_front women_back 34Filler_F_pour_water 35Path_F_run_awayfrom_tree_front 36Path_M_walk_out_cave_pass_walk_into_cave_side 37Path_F_ walk_across _path_sideLR 38Path_M_walk_into_woods_back 39Path_M_run_up_from_river_back 40Path_F_walk_outof_cave_front 41Filler_M_read_book 42Path_F_walk_up_stairs_front 43Filler_F_fold_cloth 44Path_F_walk_outof_cave_up_stairs_back 45Path_C_walk_down_path_front 46Path_F_walk_into_cave_back 47Path_F_walk_front_tree_sideRL 48Path_F_walk_awayfrom_tree_front 49Path_3_walk_under_branch _behind_tree_front 50Filler_M_takeoff_jumper 51Path_F_walk_outof_field_sideRL 52Path_C_run_toward_stone_jump_on_stone_sideRL 53Path_C_walk_outof_cave_toward_C_sideLR 54Path_F_ walk_across _bridge_front_man_sideLR 55Path_F_walk_down_to_lake_back 56Path_M_walk_out of_woods_front 57Path_M_walk_awayfrom_F_front 58Path_M_ walk_across _path_sideRL 59Path_F_run_behind_tree_sideRL 60Filler_M_eat_banana 61Filler_M_feed_ducks 62Path_F_walk_into_woods_sideLR 63Path_F_walk_up_stairs_back 64Path_C_jump_from_rock_to_rock_side 65Filler_F_puton_flipflop 66Path_C_walk_outof_cave_to_sea_sideLR 67Path_F_run_front_tree-sideLR 68Filler_F_takeoff_flipflop 69Filler_M_puton_jumper 70Path_F_walk_into_cave_front 71Path_C_walk_into_cave_sideRL 72Filler_F_takeoff_cardigan 73Path_F_walk_outof_cave_back 74Filler_F_sitdown_blanket 75Path_F_walk_toward_tree_back 76Path_5_walk_toward_lake_across_road_back
This project is funded by the Endangered Languages Programme (DOBES) of the VW Foundation for a period of three years (August 2005-July 2008). The aim of the project is a documentation of the linguistic and cultural knowledge of the remaining speakers of several language varieties belonging to two language groups. The Jaminjungan group consists of Jaminjung and Ngaliwurru (which are closely related) as well as Nungali (now no longer spoken). Languages of the Eastern Ngumpin group are Gurindji, Ngarinyman, Bilinarra, and Mudburra, as well as a mixed language, Gurindji Kriol. These varieties (and in addition English and Kriol, an English-lexified creole), constitute part of a single network of multilingual communicative practice in the region, since their speakers have been in close contact for a long time, and since they now share the same settlements distributed throughout the Victoria River District. One aim of the project therefore is to carefully document variation. The lexical databases are set up to facilitate cross-referencing between the different varieties, for example to identify borrowings and translation equivalents. Focal areas for the text collection are topics such as significant sites, knowledge about plants and animals, and oral history, which are likely to be of particular interest to the speakers and their descendants as well as to linguists, anthropologists, biologists, ecologists, and historians. Two PhD students within the projects focus on the topics of Jaminjung prosody (Candide Simard) and spatial expressions in Ngarinyman (Kristina Henschke), respectively. The project was administered by the University of Graz from August 2005 to March 2007, and by the University of Manchester from April 2007 to July 2008. It is conducted in collaboration with the Diwurruwurru-Jaru Aboriginal Corporation, an Aboriginal Language Centre based in Katherine (N.T.), and includes community members as trainees and co-investigators. The members of the core project team are: Eva Schultze-Berndt (Manchester; project director; Jaminjungan languages and some Ngarinyman), Patrick McConvell (Canberra; Principal Investigator; Ngumpin languages and Gurindji Kriol; anthropology); Felicity Meakins (Melbourne/Manchester; Postdoctoral Fellow; Ngumpin languages and Gurindji Kriol), Kristina Henschke (Graz, PhD student, Ngarinyman); Candide Simard (Manchester, PhD student, Jaminjung/Ngaliwurru). The core project team is supported by Glenn Wightman (Darwin) as ethnobiologist and Alan Marett and Linda Barwick (Sydney) as ethnomusicologists, by Erika Charola (Paris) as a linguistic consultant working on Gurindji, as well as by Nikolaus Himmelmann (Bochum) as and Mark Harvey (Newcastle) as cooperation partners.
MM is a very helpful consultant with a rich knowledge of Jaminjung who has worked as a language consultant with a number of researchers before.
SJ is a daughter of JJ and helped out a few times by explaining stimuli to elderly consultants and repeating Ngaliwurru to the researcher for easier understanding.
DH is a PhD student of ESB started research on Jaminjung/Ngaliwurru and Kriol in 2008
