| Description: | Elicitation session with Mathias to look into motion expression. Annotated in ELAN by Saskia. | |
| The Avatime project aims to describe and document Avatime. The researchers involved in this project are Rebecca Defina and Saskia van Putten. The project included fieldwork in Ghana in 2008 and was completed in 2009. Outcomes of the project are: (1) audio and video recordings of different genres, of which 13,5 hours have been transcribed and annotated, (2) an Avatime-English wordlist, (3) grammar notes and (4) two Master's theses, one on the expression of motion in Avatime (Saskia van Putten) and one on aspect and mood in Avatime (Rebecca Defina). | ||
| Saskia describes motion scenes based on the scenes of the 'come and go questionnaire' Wilkins and Hill, 1993. She asks Mathias to describe these imagined scenes in Avatime. The forms of some motion verbs and constructions in different aspects / moods is also tested. | ||
| Questions and discussion in English, Avatime is the language under discussion. | ||
| Mathias was one of our main consultants for this project. He has helped us transcribe recordings and participated in experiments and elicitation sessions. He was born in Vane and grew up there. His father has died and his mother has moved to Accra, so he lives with his grandparents. He is a student at the Senior Secondary School in Vane. | ||
| Saskia van Putten is one of the researchers in this project. She did her bachelor in Languages and Cultures of Africa and her research master in Linguistics, both at Leiden University. She started PhD studies at the Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics in 2009. Saskia grew up and still lives in the Netherlands. | ||
| The recording was made using a Marantz PMD flash recorder. The recording is mono, 16 bit and 48 kHz. | ||
| Annotated by Saskia. | ||
