  • Library of Congress Subject Headings for the Pacific Islands
    Library of Congress Subject Headings for the Pacific Islands First compiled by Nancy Sack and Gwen Sinclair Updated by Nancy Sack Current to January 2020 Library of Congress Subject Headings for the Pacific Islands Background An inquiry from a librarian in Micronesia about how to identify subject headings for the Pacific islands highlighted the need for a list of authorized Library of Congress subject headings that are uniquely relevant to the Pacific islands or that are important to the social, economic, or cultural life of the islands. We reasoned that compiling all of the existing subject headings would reveal the extent to which additional subjects may need to be established or updated and we wish to encourage librarians in the Pacific area to contribute new and changed subject headings through the Hawai‘i/Pacific subject headings funnel, coordinated at the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa.. We captured headings developed for the Pacific, including those for ethnic groups, World War II battles, languages, literatures, place names, traditional religions, etc. Headings for subjects important to the politics, economy, social life, and culture of the Pacific region, such as agricultural products and cultural sites, were also included. Scope Topics related to Australia, New Zealand, and Hawai‘i would predominate in our compilation had they been included. Accordingly, we focused on the Pacific islands in Melanesia, Micronesia, and Polynesia (excluding Hawai‘i and New Zealand). Island groups in other parts of the Pacific were also excluded. References to broader or related terms having no connection with the Pacific were not included. Overview This compilation is modeled on similar publications such as Music Subject Headings: Compiled from Library of Congress Subject Headings and Library of Congress Subject Headings in Jewish Studies.

  • Title Tutuba Texts : 'A Bush Sprite and a Good Man'
    Tutuba Texts : 'A Bush Sprite and a Good Man', and 'Two Bush Title Sprites and Two Little Boys' Author(s) Naitou, Maho Citation Dynamis : ことばと文化 (2004), 8: 127-148 Issue Date 2004-10-15 URL http://hdl.handle.net/2433/87709 Right Type Departmental Bulletin Paper Textversion publisher Kyoto University DYNAMIS, 8 (2004) , 127-148 Tutuba Texts —‘A Bush Sprite and a Good Man’ , and ‘Two Bush Sprites and Two Little Boys’— Maho Naitou 1. Introduction Tutuba language is spoken as the traditional language of Tutuba islands, Vanu- atu. An Oceanic language, it is spoken as a first language by approximately 500' people (Lynch and Crowley 2001 p47.). The phonemes of Tutuba are: /b t d k m n xj j3 s h r l (b) (m); i e a o u/. /(b) (m)/ are pronounced by the older (more than 50) and now young generation pronounce /b m/ instead. Voicedstops are prenasalized. This is mostly noticeable in non-utterance-initial position as well as other Oceanic languages. The following two texts are in the Tutuba language, and narrated by Turambue (male, 70's), who was born and raised in Tutuba. They are folktales about the bush sprites who have long hair, long nails and can fly2. I translate these texts into both English and Japanese3. Abbreviation in glosses and Orthography are shown in page 147. 2. Texts The following two stories were recorded on 15 August 2004 in Feoa village. 1There are several reports about the number of Tutuba language speakers. For exam- ple, Lynch and Crowley (2001 p47.) reports that the number of the speakers is 500, and SIL(http://www.ethnologue.com/ 2004.

It has obvious links to the real world, first in the connection between many grammatical gender systems and biologi- cal sex, and second in other types of categorization such as size, which underpin particular gender systems and also have external correlates.

    T6 Table[6.[Languages T6 T6 DeweyT6iDecima Tablel[iClassification6.[Languages T6 *‡Table 6. Languages The following notation is never used alone, but may be used with those numbers from the schedules and other tables to which the classifier is instructed to add notation from Table 6, e.g., translations of the Bible (220.5) into Dutch (—3931 in this table): 220.53931; regions (notation —175 from Table 2) where Spanish language (—61 in this table) predominates: Table 2 notation 17561. When adding to a number from the schedules, always insert a decimal point between the third and fourth digits of the complete number Unless there is specific provision for the old or middle form of a modern language, class these forms with the modern language, e.g., Old High German —31, but Old English —29 Unless there is specific provision for a dialect of a language, class the dialect with the language, e.g., American English dialects —21, but Swiss-German dialect —35 Unless there is a specific provision for a pidgin, creole, or mixed language, class it with the source language from which more of its vocabulary comes than from its other source language(s), e.g., Crioulo language —69, but Papiamento —68. If in doubt, prefer the language coming last in Table 6, e.g., Michif —97323 (not —41) The numbers in this table do not necessarily correspond exactly to the numbers used for individual languages in 420–490 and in 810–890. For example, although the base number for English in 420–490 is 42, the number for English in Table 6 is —21, not —2 (Option A: To give local emphasis and a shorter number to a specific language, place it first by use of a letter or other symbol, e.g., Arabic language 6_A [preceding 6_1].

I focus on the meanings of the perfect aspect and realis/irrealis mood in Nafsan and other Oceanic languages, as case studies for investigating the cross-linguistic features of these TMA categories. Given the diversity of TMA systems in languages of the world, the status of many TMA categories as cross-linguistically valid has been disputed in the linguistic literature.
