| Description: | Raombong Serao tells a traditional folktale in Ninde about a time when Rat, Chicken, and Dove went picnicking together. Rat makes enemies with the others by stealing some of their food. The tale recounts the origins of some of Rat's characteristic features: the colouration of Rat's mouth, why Rat must steal to eat, and Rat's nocturnal lifestyle. | |

| This project is concerned with the documentation of Ninde, a threatened Central Malekula (Oceanic) language spoken in five villages in the South West Bay region of Malekula island of Vanuatu. Ninde is almost entirely undocumented; there is a sketch grammar based on data from one young speaker. The language is spoken by at most 1000 people, and in four of the five villages is not being transmitted to children. One of the immediate goals of this project is the community-led creation of an orthography and possibly even pedagogical materials in order to facilitate Ninde-language education and preserve traditional knowledge. | ||
