Title: Publication: Notes from the Field: Baskeet phonological sketch and digital wordlist

Description: The journal article describes the vowel and consonant system of Baskeet and provides some preliminary ideas about the tone system. The presentation of a Swadesh-200 word list - in phonetic and phonological transcription, with glosses and notes on the translation - constitutes the core of the paper. Each Baskeet word or phrase mentioned in the paper is linked to a sound file. (Bibliographical information: Treis, Yvonne & Alexander Werth 2014.

Description: Baskeet is spoken by around 60,000 speakers at the fringes of the Ethiopian highlands in the Southern Nations, Nationalities and Peoples' Region of Ethiopia. It is an Omotic language. This collection will focus on the linguistic and ethnographic documentation of endangered literary genres in Baskeet, namely songs, poems, prayers and ceremonial speech, which are being abandoned in the course of rapid socio-cultural changes. The collection will include, firstly, a multi-media documentation (text, audio, video) of these culturally emblematic endangered domains and, secondly, form a contribution to longer-range extensive documentation of Baskeet, with a dictionary at its core.
