TThis Fund was commenced a number of years ago to encourage English- speaking children and young people to memorise the Holy Scriptures from the Authorised Version of the Bible. Under the scheme, we provide a list of verses to be memorised by children in two age groups: those ten years of age and under and those aged eleven to fifteen. To the younger children who memorise their verses, we present suitably inscribed gilt-edged, bonded leather text Bibles. For the older children, gilt-edged bonded leather reference Bibles are awarded. Those who have memorised the first set of verses may receive the reference Bible upon completing the work for the higher age group. The Society would encourage all parents, office-bearers and other supporters of the Society who seek the spiritual well-being of the young, whether or not the children under their charge attend a Sabbath school, to request further details of the Sabbath School Learning Prize Fund from Anne Newman ([email protected]) at our London headquarters, or from any of the Society’s Branches (contact details on the inside back cover of this Quarterly Record). 2 2011 COMMEMORATIVE MEETINGS od willing, we will be continuing to mark the four hundredth anniversary of the GAuthorised Version with a series of meetings and lectures in the UK on various aspects of this excellent version’s supremacy. The latest information on these meetings follows. Please note that meeting arrangements may be subject to change. We will post changes and updates on our website, and would recommend that you contact the Society’s head office to confirm details of time and location closer to the date.

  • A Sketch of Dialectal Variation in Mano Maria Khachaturyan University Of
    Mandenkan, No. 59, 2018, pp. 31-56 A sketch of dialectal variation in Mano Maria Khachaturyan University of Helsinki [email protected] This paper1 gives a preliminary account of the dialectal situation of Mano, a South Mande language. My main descriptive focus is Guinean Mano, I have been doing fieldwork on the language since 2009 and I have spent more than 14 months in the field, mainly in the city of Nzerekore and in neighboring villages. A description of the Guinean variety can be found in Khachaturyan (2015). The information on Liberian dialects was obtained in January 2018 during a short trip to three Liberian villages, Gbanquoi, Kpein and Flumpa, as well as from written sources: two language manuals: (deZeeuw & Kruah 1981; Neal et al. 1946), a Bible translation (UBS 1978) and some literacy materials (Zarwolo 2009). The paper is organized as follows. Section 1 gives a sketch of the sociolinguistic situation. Section 2 provides some preliminary observations of the interdialectal differences in phonology. Section 3 gives some details on morphosyntactic variation. Section 4 presents differences in lexicon. The results are discussed in Section 5 where I explain, in particular, why some of the dialectal differences could be in fact an issue of contact with different languages: Kpelle, especially in the North of the Mano zone, and Dan in the South. 1 I would like to express my gratitude to the anonymous reviewers for their helpful criticism. As usual, I am thankful to Pe Mamy for his tireless help and support in (our) language research, and also for his wonderful companionship in our travels (we will have to have more Club beers to share in Liberia!).

Tonal inflection in Mande languages: The cases of Bamana and Dan-Gwɛɛtaa Valentin Vydrin 1. Introduction Mande is a mid-range language family (its time depth ranges between 5000 and 6000 years) presumably belonging to the Niger-Congo macrofamily. It comprises more than 70 languages. Practically all Mande languages are tonal, therefore the Proto-Mande language most probably was tonal too. Tonal systems of the modern Mande languages are very diverse in the number of tones, in the complexity of rules conditioning the passage of tones from the underlying level to the surface, in the role grammatical tone and a number of tonal morphemes; for a survey (although outdated in some points) see (Vydrine 2004).

  • 1 Inclusory Pronouns in Mande: the Emergence of a Typological Rarum
    Inclusory pronouns in Mande: The emergence of a typological rarum Maria Khachaturyan Folia Linguistica 2019; 53(1): 87–123 https://doi.org/10.1515/flin-2019-2005 NB: this is a pre-review version, please contact the author for the final version Abstract This paper reviews inclusory constructions and pronouns in the Mande language family and proposes a diachronic account of their development. Inclusory constructions, which are found in several Mande languages, are a type of conjunction strategy where the whole set of participants – the superset – and a subset of participants are expressed, as in Dan-Gwetaa yāā Gbȁtȍ ‘Gbato and I’, lit. ‘we Gbato’. In a number of Southern and Southwestern Mande languages, inclusory constructions are typologically unique, as they feature a separate series of inclusory pronouns, which are used exclusively in this construction. The paper argues that these inclusory pronouns are a Southwestern Mande innovation, which spread to other Mande languages through contact. Keywords: coordination, comitative, inclusory construction, language contact, typological rara 1. Introduction The inclusory construction, or IC (Lichtenberk 2000, Haspelmath 2004:25-26), is a type of conjunction strategy, along with coordinative and comitative constructions. The crucial property of an IC is that one of its constituents has the same reference as the entire construction. This constituent, the superset, is typically an inclusory pronominal, IP, as in (1) from Dan-Gweetaa. (1) Dan-Gweetaa, Mande (Vydrin 2010:165) [yāā Gbȁtȍ] yá nū. we P.N. we.AUX come ‘Gbato and I, we have come (lit.: we [including] Gbato, we have come)’. 1 The example above contains an inclusory construction yāā Gbȁtȍ, where Gbȁtȍ is a proper name and yāā ‘we’ is an inclusory pronoun.
