OCSEAN-AOZ_20220715-WORDLIST.wav contains all eight recordings concatenated together in a single file.
OCSEAN-AOZ_20220715-WORDLIST_TEXTGRID.txt contains a text-grid file made in Praat. This contains two tiers: the top tier with the number of the item, and the bottom tier with a broad phonetic transcription made by Owen Edwards. Different responses to the same prompt are differentiated alphabetically (e.g. 1a, 1b).
OCSEAN-AOZ_20220715-WORDLIST.txt is a text file which contains the cleaned up version of all the Uab Meto data collected with the orthographic transcriptions made by Alfred Snae and broad phonetic transcriptions made by Owen Edwards.
In Owen Edward’s transcriptions three phonetic heights are distinguished among the mid vowels: mid-low [ɛ] and [ɔ], mid-high [e] and [o], and slightly higher [ɪ] and [ʊ]. All these mid vowels are transcribed by Alfred Snae (the consultant) as <e> and <o>. In final syllables mid-high [e o] and slightly higher [ɪ ʊ] are historically high vowels which have lowered after a (historically) penultimate mid-low vowel. In penultimate syllables, mid-high [e o] are mid vowels which have raised before a (historically) high vowel; e.g.*okiʔ *[ʔɔkiʔ] ‘wave’ > [ʔokeʔ], *mepu *[mɛpu] > [mepo]. All vowel-initial words begin with a glottal stop. Long vowels analysable as sequences of two identical vowels are transcribed with two vowel symbols. Stress regularly falls on the penultimate vowel of a word.
OCSEAN-AOZ_20220715-WORDLIST.pdf contains the first 393 items as filled in by hand by I Made Netra in IPA.
OCSEAN-AOZ_20220715-WORDLIST_TYPED.pdf contains a typed up version of the wordlist, made by Alfred Snae in orthographic transcription. Meto items are given in brackets after the Indonesian prompt. |
