Bermerkungen uber die Sia-sprache zu den auf zeichnungen von Missionar Michael Stoltz by Otto Dempwolff |
| Description |
120 page text. -- Transcription of Otto Dempwolff's Bermerkungen uber die Sia-sprache zu den auf zeichnungen von Missionar Michael Stoltz [translated by L. Wagner and G. Schmutterer on August 1, 1936]. Short grammatical statement with a short comparative vocabulary of Sia and Graged (Gedaged), followed by an extensive German - Sia vocabulary. Dempwolff noted (p. 10) that Sia was a mixed language based on Papuan with an Austronesian overlay, and that it stood linguistically between the Graged speech of the west and the Jabem speech of the east [compiler's translation]. This text was acquired by Capell when in London working on his PhD. Dempwolff was a major influence on Capell's Oceanic work. Unfortunately,this copy has some pages where words have been shaved off from the right edge.; (Typological analysis) |
