Description: | This is a one hour 46 minute recording of an elicitation session with Rosemary Paura and Rose Kewin. | |
Koro is an Oceanic (Austronesian) language spoken by several hundred people on Manus and Los Negros islands, approximately 200 miles off the north coast of the Papua New Guinea mainland. This documentation consists primarily of recorded narratives and conversations in the Papitalai dialect, spoken in Papitalai, Riu Riu, and Naringel villages. | ||
Discussion includes positional predicates, allative serial verb constructions (SVCs), imperfective SVCs, and directional SVCs. | ||
Jessica Cleary-Kemp is the PI on the project. She conducted the research on Koro during her tenure as a PhD candidate at the University of California, Berkeley. | ||
I guessed her date of birth. Rose is the daughter of Laurence and Pauline Kewin. Pauline is Bipi and speaks the Bipi language as her first language. Rose did not learn Koro as a child, and does not have native fluency. Her first language is Tok Pisin, and she also speaks some English. She has traveled a lot and has had many different jobs. She was married to a man in the Highlands, but has since divorced him. She is Jessica Cleary-Kemp's adopted cousin (tuwa). Her nickname is "Short Rose". | ||
Nayap grew up in Papitalai, Moresby, and Lae. Her first languages were Koro and Tok Pisin, although Tok Pisin was always her dominant language. She learnt English at school and is fluent. I am not sure how much schooling she completed. She tragically fell from a tree and died in 2015. Village name: Nayap Mwaket. She is often referred to as Nayap, whereas many others are not referred to by their village name. Nayap's parents are Kristine Pat and Paura Pat. Her siblings are Julianne Paura (from a different mother, I believe), Veronica Pat, Shirley Duma, Kennedy Paura, Jenny Paura, Steven Paura, Sandra Paura, and Rex Paura. Her children are Alexandra Abau, Stiyen Paura, James Paura, Isabela Abau, and Calem Mark Anthony. Rosemary was Jessica Cleary-Kemp's adopted sister (tesi). | ||
