Abstract

Research Statement can be found in the attached file source01.pdf

Schneider has compiled three resource booklets on local birds, plants, and fish for the Suru Kavian-speaking community. The booklets contain drawings, accompanied by word-level descriptions. The drawings were sourced from the Vanuatu Cultural Centre in Port Vila. The words accompanying each drawing, and decisions about appropriate spellings for each word, are based on Schneider's ongoing research on the Suru Kavian variety. To produce these books, research into Apma's morphology (word structure) and phonology (sound system) was necessary.
