  • Sorry Day Programme Fri 25/5/07
    Running Sheet NATIONAL SORRY DAY LITURGY FRIDAY 26 MAY, 2017 WE GATHER: Tatyana King-Smith: Good morning and welcome. My name is Tatyana King-Smith and I’m a Year 12 student. I am a proud descendant of Kulkalgal (cool-cul-garl). As Australians, we are all woven into this country’s stories. This morning we gather to commemorate National Sorry Day. We take this opportunity to hear the stories of our first peoples, to accept the fact that past laws, practices and policies deeply affected the lives of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and to recognise moments of resilience, healing and the power of saying Sorry. We acknowledge that the journey towards reconciliation forms a significant part of Australia’s story, as do the stories of both trauma and triumph told by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. Today also marks the beginning of National Reconciliation Week which runs annually from 27 May – 3 June. In 2017, we reflect on two significant anniversaries in Australia’s reconciliation journey – 50 years since the 1967 referendum, and 25 years since the historic Mabo decision. Today, we take the time to recognise that reconciliation must live in the hearts, minds and actions of all Australians as we move forward, in the knowledge that we believe in fairness for everyone, that our diversity makes us richer, and that together, we are stronger. We are called, as the theme of Reconciliation Week suggests to ‘Take the Next Steps’ together. PROCESSION Procession will start when the music begins. Aboriginal flag carried in by and Sherlana and Mona Wolmby TSI flag carried in by Imani Tamwoy Place the flags on either arm of the big Cross.

  • 34 Emergency Language Documentation Teams: the Cape York Peninsula Experience
    34 Emergency language documentation teams: the Cape York Peninsula experience Clair Hill1 and Patrick McConvell2 Abstract Language revitalisation and endangered language documentation are complementary endeavours – they feed into each other and both benefit from the support of the other. This idea is at the heart of a community teams approach called Emergency Language Documentation Teams (McConvell et al. 2005). This paper will review the underpinnings of this idea and discuss the successes and difficulties encountered while applying it in the Cape York Peninsula region. The findings of the Cape York Peninsula Language Documentation project pilot discussed in this paper include that informal approaches to both language worker training and language learning were, across the board, far more successful than more formal approaches (including one-on-one versions of master–apprentice schemes). We also found that the project approach was more difficult in situations where there were more social and linguistic divisions and heterogeneity. There is some irony in this given that often in the Australian context linguistic homogeneity within a speech community can itself be a result of language shift and language loss. Project approach Many of the original Cape York Peninsula (CYP) languages are no longer spoken, and many more are on the brink of loss. An amount of what would now be called endangered languages research in CYP was carried out in the 1970s under the rubric 1 Language and Cognition, Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics and Linguistics, University of Leuven. 2 School of Language Studies, Australian National University.

  • Noun Phrase Constituency in Australian Languages: a Typological Study
    Linguistic Typology 2016; 20(1): 25–80 Dana Louagie and Jean-Christophe Verstraete Noun phrase constituency in Australian languages: A typological study DOI 10.1515/lingty-2016-0002 Received July 14, 2015; revised December 17, 2015 Abstract: This article examines whether Australian languages generally lack clear noun phrase structures, as has sometimes been argued in the literature. We break up the notion of NP constituency into a set of concrete typological parameters, and analyse these across a sample of 100 languages, representing a significant portion of diversity on the Australian continent. We show that there is little evidence to support general ideas about the absence of NP structures, and we argue that it makes more sense to typologize languages on the basis of where and how they allow “classic” NP construal, and how this fits into the broader range of construals in the nominal domain. Keywords: Australian languages, constituency, discontinuous constituents, non- configurationality, noun phrase, phrase-marking, phrasehood, syntax, word- marking, word order 1 Introduction It has often been argued that Australian languages show unusual syntactic flexibility in the nominal domain, and may even lack clear noun phrase struc- tures altogether – e. g., in Blake (1983), Heath (1986), Harvey (2001: 112), Evans (2003a: 227–233), Campbell (2006: 57); see also McGregor (1997: 84), Cutfield (2011: 46–50), Nordlinger (2014: 237–241) for overviews and more general dis- cussion of claims to this effect. This idea is based mainly on features
