Documenting the endangered (Ho Nte) She: a special focus on tone and speech prosody
The Endangered Language Documentation Programme (ELDP) provides grants worldwide for the documentation of endangered languages and knowledge. Grantees create audiovisual collections with transcription and translations of endangered languages and practices. These collections are preserved and made freely available through the Endangered Languages Archive (ELAR).
| This project will document the endangered [i](Ho Le) She[/i] language in Guangdong Province of China. A special endeavor is applied to producing one of the first systematic descriptions of the tonal and prosodic phenomena of tise language. I will cooperate with the speech community for my proposed research to record tonal and prosodic language data at multiple levels, from lexicon, phrases, sentences to conversations. In particular, more videos will be recorded to document She conversations by different types of discourse, so as to respond to the appeal of more multimodal resources for the language. |
