Title Nambu Primers and Wordlists
Description Three Nambu sound recordings made with a Zoom Handy Recorder H4n, in the Language House on Aug 27 2012.

Audio notes:
1 & 2- Recorded with Yokar, reading from a couple of Nambu primers which he brought to Bimadbn from Gubam as illustrations of how to write Nambu in the Martin orthography. Book one illustrates each of the letters with a bible quote; Books two and three combine words into short sentences as a sort of phonetic primer.
3 - Recorded with Yokar, Gubae and Werwer and includes material from the second part of the comparative word list, along with a few extra paradigms and other material.
