  • The Influence of German on the Lexicon of Palauan and Kosraean
    The Influence of German on the Lexicon of Palauan and Kosraean Author Stefan Engelberg University of Wuppertal Fachbereich A Gauss-Str. 20 D-42097 Wuppertal Germany engelb@uni-wuppertal.de http://www2.uni-wuppertal.de/FBA/germanistik/engelberg/welcome.html Abstract German loanwords are found in many languages in the South Pacific, in particular in those areas which were under German administration before WW I. The Austronesian languages in this area differ greatly with respect to the number of lexemes of German origin. The paper focuses on two languages of Micronesia, namely Palauan, with a comparatively high number of German loans, and Kosraean which had no German influence on its lexicon. The paper considers the balance of factors that contribute to the different loanword amounts. That German was taught in local schools for up to two decades did not, by itself, enhance borrowing from German. More weighty factors for the amount of borrowings from German are the length and strength of language contact with English and the use of German as a means of communication in particular settings in the years before WW I. Keywords Loanword, Language Contact, Second Language Learning, Language Teaching, Language Policy, Pidgin, Language Attitude, Palauan, Kosraean, German, English, Spanish. The Influence of German on the Lexicon of Palauan and Kosraean 2/20 1 Introduction Most of the languages spoken in Micronesia incorporated German loanwords into their lexicons. These borrowings go back to the two decades before WW I when large parts of Micronesia were under German administration, namely the Northern Marianas, the Caroline Islands, including the Palau Islands, the Marshall Islands and Nauru, leaving Guam and the Gilbert Islands (Kiribati) the only parts of Micronesia not administered by the Germans back then.

"Most of our pastors have no formal Pacific Islands University training." I am confident that many of the with the purpose of keeping pastors Adam referred to are Godly men, who have ministry gifts from the Holy Spirit, and friends of PIU abreast of that they are hard workers. In my career as a current events and ways pastor I knew some men who were they can be involved with extraordinary pastors, though they had no the University. college or seminary training.

  • Die Deutsche Evangelische Mission in Mikronesien
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Rostocker Dokumentenserver Die deutsche evangelische Mission in Mikronesien Vortrag auf der Tagung „Kolonialmedizin, Kolonialpädagogik, Kolonialgeschichte Deutschlands in der Südsee 1884 bis 1914“ am 04./05.11.2011 in Rostock Manuel Rauchholz Vorgeschichte Als im März 1906 der erste deutsche evangelische Missionar Sixtus Hugenschmidt die Insel Ponape (heute: Pohnpei) auf den Ostkarolinen erreichte, hatte die Insel schon eine über 50jährige Geschichte der protestantischen Mission hinter sich. Ein Team von amerikanischen Missionaren des American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions (ABCFM) war bereits seit 1852 zusammen mit ihren hawaiianischen Mitarbeitern auf den Kiribati (heute Kiribati)- und Marshall Inseln, sowie auf Kusaie (heute: Kosrae) und Pohnpei tätig geworden. Schon nach etwa 20 weiteren Jahren im Jahre 1873 konnten unter der Anleitung von Pastor Albert Sturges die ersten einheimischen Missionare und Lehrer aus Pohnpei zu den ca. 500 km südwestlich gelegenen Mortlockinseln (Nomoi), speziell nach Satowan und Lukunor ausgesandt werden. Sechs Jahre später, im Dezember 1879, folgte dann der Schritt in die Truk Lagune (heute: Chuuk). Dieser wurde durch Kontakte des kiribati-pohnpeiischen Lehrerehepaares Moses (†1908) und Zippora zu Chuuk-leuten ermöglicht, die sich besuchsweise immer wieder auf den Mortlock Inseln aufhielten. Eine Schlüsselrolle spielte dabei Eurfanu, ein Navigator von der Insel Uman in der Chuuk Lagune mit dem Taufnamen Paul, der mit einer Frau von der Insel Nama verheiratet war und oft zwischen der Chuuk Lagune und den Mortlockinseln verkehrte. Die deutsche evangelische Missionsarbeit betrat also anfangs kein Neuland, sondern fand bereits eine indigene evangelische Kirche mit eigenen Strukturen und Persönlichkeiten vor.

  • Outside Country
    CANADIAN INTERNATIONAL CHARITIES BY COUNTRY OR REGION OF OPERATION AND WHY THIS INFORMATION MAY BE HELPFUL Why is it useful to have a list of Canadian charities organized by countries or regions by which they operate? 1. If you are interested in a particular country it is interesting to note which Canadian charities are operating there. 2. If you are interested in supporting a particular countries development efforts then you have a list of some the charities that are operating there. 3. If an individual, organization or charity is interested in conducting a project in a particular country they may wish to partner with one of the charities on the ground. I am approached frequently by people interested in setting up charities and I usually try to dissuade and encourage them to work with an established charity that has similar interest. 4. If you are a Canadian charity it can help – if new project in new country can speak to some of the Canadian charities that have already operated there. 5. Also if a foundation has a particular interest in a country they may be a potential source of funds for a charity. 6. Need for greater coordination between charities – greater efficiencies – donors expecting that organizations will work together and not compete for the sake of competition. This information may be useful to encourage cooperation. Limitations and Caveats This information on which countries Canadian charities are conducting projects comes from the 2004 T3010 Registered Charity Information Return and specifically Q. C5 “For programs the charity managed directly, outside of Canada, list the countries or regions where programs were carried on.
