Bernard Comrie Carol Genetti Andrew Pawley Marianne Mithun, Committee Chair May 2015 A Reconstruction of Proto-Sogeram: Phonology, Lexicon, and Morphosyntax Copyright © 2015 by Don Roger Daniels iii Acknowledgments It takes a village to write a dissertation. I can’t possibly acknowledge everyone who has contributed to the completion of this project, but there are nevertheless many people I would like to mention. First of all, I give my thanks to my advisor and chair, Marianne Mithun. Her patience, enthusiasm, and encouragement helped me make it through graduate school, and her advice on matters professional, personal, and scholarly was invaluable in my development as a researcher. Very special thanks also go to Andy Pawley. He was the one who suggested these languages as a possible research topic all the way back in 2005, and he has been guiding me through the world of Papuan historical linguistics ever since. The other members of my committee, Bernard Comrie and Carol Genetti, have also provided steady, helpful feedback to me over the years. I have learned more and grown more as a result of the advice and supervision of these scholars than I can possibly express. I am also grateful to the various other linguists who have helped me along the way with guidance or with engaging conversations about my work, including Mark Donohue, Malcolm Ross, Ger Reesink, Sandy Thompson, Nick Evans, Lindsay Whaley, Tim Pulju, René van den Berg, Alex François, Joseph Brooks, Brad McDonnell, Bill Palmer, Edgar Suter, Tim Usher, Harold Koch, and Lourens de Vries.

    CLASSIFICATORY AND TYP OLOGICA L STUDIES IN LANGUAGES OF THE WESTERN MADANG DIST RICT, NEW GUINEA BY Jo A. Z 'GRAGGEN The Australian NationaL University The Research School of Pacific Studies Department of Linguistics Canberra 1969 III PREFACE This thesis is the outcome of a period of research which began in August 1964 when I was transferred as a Missionary of the Society of the Divine Word (S.V.D.) to the Catholic Mission Station at Mugil. My linguistic aim at that time was to gain a basic idea of the nature of the Mugil language and to get an overall pic­ ture of the linguistic situation in the area for which I had to care as a missionary. An orienta­ tion trip to various parts the Bogia Sub­ of district and the Mlddle Ramu area was made in the second half of 1965. It was then that it became apparent to me how insufficient our linguistic knowledge of the Madang District was. Published material could be adequately understood only in the light of new field studies. Fieldwork was resumed again in January 1967 under the auspices of the Australian National University. Initially had planned to make a I descriptive and comparative study of the Mugil IV language. I did, however, not succeed in establishing a family or stock with Mugil as a member, but the survey work along the coast progressed well and was equally successful in the Ramu River area. was surprised to encounter in I the Ramu River area, typological features found along the coast. The original plan of the field­ trip was then given up and the rest of the time spent on establishing the boundaries of typolo�i­ cal features such as the indication of the subject with the verb, the prefixing or suffixing of possessive markers or object markers and oth�rs, and on collecting the necessary materials for a lexical classification the languages.

  • The History of *=A Contact and Reconstruction in Northeast New Guinea
    journal of language contact 12 (2019) 533-568 brill.com/jlc The History of *=a Contact and Reconstruction in Northeast New Guinea Don Daniels University of Oregon, United States [email protected] Joseph Brooks University of Virginia, United States [email protected] Abstract This paper discusses the historical borrowing of an enclitic across unrelated Papuan languages spoken along the lower Sogeram River in the Middle Ramu region of present- day Madang Province, Papua New Guinea. The enclitic *=a, which attached to the right edge of a prosodic unit, was borrowed from the Ramu family into the ances- tor of three modern Sogeram languages. Both morphological and prosodic substance were borrowed, as was the dual functionality of the enclitic – as a pragmatic marker in independent utterances and a linking device on dependent domains. We discuss the clitic’s formal and functional properties as evidence for its contact-induced origin and subsequent historical development in western Sogeram, as well as the implica- tions of these developments for our understanding of morphological and pragmatic borrowing. The complexities of this borrowing event highlight the potential for theo- ries of language contact to benefit from collaborative research on previously unstud- ied contact areas.

They comprise all languages of Australasia (Oceania) not covered by phylosectors 3=Austronesian or 5=Indo-European.

  • Papua New Guinea Additional Power and Electricity Information
    Papua New Guinea Additional Power and Electricity Information Source: Compiled by VisionRI from information in the National & Provincial Ten Year Power Development Plan (2007-16), PNG Power Limited, 2006, and revised based on ongoing discussions with ED-DPE, 2007-08. Distribution PPL supplies power to Port Moresby and 26 other urban centers through 19 independent power systems. Its present generating capacity is 153 MW (80 MW in Port Moresby) for total energy sales of 742 GWh (316 GWh in Port Moresby). PPL, formerly the Electricity Commission, used to be the sole generator, transmitter and distributor of electricity in the country. In 1999, an independent power producer, Hanjung Power Ltd, negotiated the production and sale of power to the grid within a 15-year build-operate-transfer (BOT) arrangement. However, the present electricity tariff of about $0.15 per kilowatt hour (kWh) is hardly sufficient to cover the cost of the diesel oil needed to produce power in Port Moresby. In rural areas the cost of diesel alone can be three times the tariff, or more. Since 2003, PPL has been earmarked for privatization and a new private commercial operator, PNG Sustainable Energy Ltd (SEL), is beginning to enter the sector. Sector Issues Lack of reliable quality power supply to the main urban areas may limit economic growth. Investments are required in power generation and the transmission and distribution grids for the Port Moresby and Ramu grids. Town electrification - Poor-quality power supply in provincial centers and lack of generation to meet growing demand is limiting economic growth in provincial urban centers not connected to the main grids.

The report says that in the next five years $50 billion in earnings derived from Australian mining investments will go offshore. Senator Brown wants a Resource Super Profits Tax and believes Aus- tralians would have been more supportive of the idea the first time around if they had seen the fig- ures. "I think Australians simply have been left in the dark about the rapid takeover of ownership offshore of Australia's minerals," he said. "I don't think Australians have any idea that Australia's mining industry is 83 per cent foreign owned." Senator Brown says images of Australian miners campaigning against the Government's mining taxes give a false impression of the level of local ownership of the industry. "A few local billionaires who've made a motza out of mining are covering up for the much greater profits than even they have yielded flowing overseas into the pockets of similar millionaires scat- tered around the world," he said.

Most of the men who came hungry for the gold were from Australia. They carried with them the skills to obtain it and the beliefs then common among Australian working men about foreigners and blacks. Most of the diggers believed that their guns and their brains made them superior to any ‘coloured’ men. Some also thought that they were physically superior, although that was harder to believe after 1902 when the first black American won a world boxing title.
