Hans Knot International Radio Report November 2014
Hans Knot International Radio Report November 2014 Welcome everybody to the November edition of the radio report. Many interesting e-mails as well questions, photos and sad news. First we go to someone who was not known to me till 4 weeks ago: ‘Hi Hans I was working for a period on the MV Mi Amigo during 1979. I went out with some friends while the station was off the air between the Mi Amigo and Dutch Caroline. We cleaned up the records and painted the ship and it looked quite well when it returned to the air during Easter 1979. I left the ship on the day it returned to air and came back on the Mi Amigo in September 1979. ‘Captain’ Harris was on board then, he was the only person with past ‘sea’ experience but for some reason he didn’t want to leave the vessel and return to land! Gary Tanner and Robb Eden. Photo collection G.Tanner While on board, there was a suitable supply of beer and soft drinks for the crew members but due to excessive consumption by the captain, this had to be rationed! I’ll sort out some photos I took while I was on the Mi Amigo. Interestingly I have photos of the barge, which delivered the fuel and crew on the night before it returned to the air in April 1979, and would be willing to write up the experience of the night. Briefly, the events unfolded as follows: A few weeks before I joined the Mi Amigo in 1979 to carry out maintenance and painting works in preparation to the stations return to air, a storm hit the south east coast of the UK and washed a barge containing a crane onto the beach at Margate, Kent. -

The Gelao languages: Preliminary classification and state of the art Andrew Hsiu Center for Research in Computational Linguistics (CRCL), Bangkok, Thailand SEALS XXIII, May 2013 Chulalongkorn University, Bangkok, Thailand Gelao’s position in Kra-Dai Kra-Dai (Tai-Kadai): primary branches Tai Hlai Ong Be Kam-Sui Kra Source: Ostapirat (2000) Goals of this talk Give a demographic overview of a little-known, but very important, language group Put together linguistics, anthropology, and history (mostly in Chinese) to get the “big picture” Propose a new preliminary internal classification of Gelao that takes recent data (post-2000) into account Explore some of Gelao’s interactions with neighboring languages Explain why Gelao is in urgent need of more scholarly attention Why Gelao? Why Gelao deserves much more attention in Kra-Dai studies: 1. Phylogenetic position: Divergent within KD 2. Internal diversity: Many distinct varieties, most likely around 10 languages (mutually unintelligible lects) 3. Historical importance: Major ethnic group in Chinese historical sources; known as Geliao 仡僚, etc. 4. Large present-day ethnic presence: Ethnic population of 500,000; speaker population: < 6,000. 5. Language endangerment: All Gelao varieties (except Central Gelao and Judu Gelao) are moribund with < 50 speakers left; fieldwork is extremely urgent. Internal diversity Gelao is by far the most internally diverse group of Kra languages. Remaining 3 Kra groups: relatively little internal variation – Buyang cluster (6 langs.): Paha, Ecun, Langjia, -

First an e mail: ‘Hello Hans, Are you familiar with: Rock-it Radio's Tribute to Pirate Offshore Radio by Bennie Dingo [email protected] All the best, Martin H. Samuel. Thanks for sharing Martin. It was known to me but now all the readers can visit these special pages. Next an item where Paul de Haan from the Netherlands ask a question which is answered by Kate Cary: ‘Hi Hans, if it’s correct this must be the legendary Caroline office at the Zeekant 105 in Scheveningen. Photo by Google Search This office got a mentioning on the Kate Cary’s Facebook page. I came there by another item brought in by Andy Archer. I’m interested to know if this is indeed the building where the office was before they went to Van Hoogendorpstreet in the Hague. Kate: Yes indeed, the office was on the top floor – I spent many nights looking out of that window watching the tender coming and going to the ship you could see the lights from the tender quite clearly. Kind Regards Kate Cary.’ Next an e mail from Jan Harteveld, once one of the captains for RNI on the radio ship MEBO II: ‘Good afternoon Hans. -
