Publisher: Kay Williamson Educational Foundation
Publication date: 2008
Number of pages: 174
ISBN: 08036236494This dictionary of the Mwaghavul language is based on an electronic manuscript prepared by Nathaniel Daapiya, whose original preface and introduction is included below. Roger Blench received the manuscript in August 2007 and converted the text into a database-like format, reformatted the whole text and edited or rewrote many of the definitions. By agreement with Mr. Dapiya, a number of the original appendices, entitled ‘compendium’, have been deleted. Together with Jacob Bess of the Mwaghavul Bible Translation Team, the introductory materials on Mwaghavul phonology and grammar have been prepared. Identifications of plants and animals have been made by Roger Blench and Jacob Bess and photographs included were all taken by Roger Blench. This remains a draft document circulated for comment and discussion.
