LAIDIG and CAROL J. LAIDIG PATTIMURA UNIVERSITY and THE SUMMER INSTITUTE OF LINGUISTICS Data are presented describing the pronominal system of Larike, an Austronesian language in Central Maluku. In addition to differentiat- ing along the lines of human vs. nonhuman, formal vs. informal, and exclusive vs. inclusive, Larike distinguishes number with a full set of duals and trials, a feature until now not reported in the sparsely studied languages of Central Maluku. These differentiations are observed as common conversational elements, and are manifested not only as free pronouns, but as pronominal affixes marking verbs, and as possessive prefixes. A discussion regarding the diachronic origins of Larike pro- nouns is also presented. 1. INTRODUCTION. Larike is a language spoken by 8,000-10,000 people on the western tip of Ambon Island in Central Maluku, Indone- sia. The majority of speakers live in two villages of nearly equal popula- tion, Wakasihu and Larike, separated by a distance of approximately two kilometers.' In addition most of the inhabitants of the small villages of Lai and Tapi, associated (socially, politically, and linguistically) with Larike and Wakasihu, respectively, are still active in their use of Larike. Also, some native speakers can still be found in the village of Allang, although it is largely the older generation in that village who are still capable of using the language.2 See Figure 1 for a map of the area. As a Central Moluccan language, Larike is a member of the Central Malayo-Polynesian subgroup of Austronesian languages (Blust 1980).3 Further subgrouping is provided by Collins (1983), in an overview of the historical relationships of the languages of Central Maluku. Figure 2 traces the subgrouping of Larike from Proto-Central Maluku, according to Collins (1983). Oceanic Linguistics, volume 29, no. 2 (Winter 1990) ? by University of Hawaii Press.

Aside from a few lexical differences, and slightly different intonational patterns, there is apparently only one regular sound change distin- guishing the dialect spoken in the village of Larike from that spoken in the villages of Wakasihu and Allang.4 Although the small dialectal dif- ferences are of no consequence for the purposes of this paper, it should be noted that the data presented here primarily reflect the language situation in the village of Larike. Prior linguistic research concerned with Moluccan languages is quite limited, and in the case of Larike, is almost nonexistent. Although Larike has never been a major topic in any linguistic publication, several wordlists have been documented in general surveys of the area. Van der Crab (1862) lists Larike among 14 other Moluccan languages, providing wordlists with over 400 entries. Ludeking (1868) gives a 20-language comparative wordlist with several hundred entries. Included among these 20 are both Larike and Allang. Wallace (1869) also provides brief comparative wordlists (approximately 100 entries), in which Larike is included.5 More recently, Chlenov and Sirk (1973) and Chle- nov (1976) mention Larike in their proposals regarding the classification of Moluccan languages. Other recent works involving Larike include FIGURE 2: LARIKE SUBGROUPING Proto-Central Maluku Proto-East Central Maluku Proto-West Central Maluku Nunusaku East Seram Piru Bay Three Rivers Seti Kayeli Patakai-Manusela Proto-West Piru Bay Proto-East Piru Bay Proto-Hoamoal Asilulu East Hoamoal West Hoamoal Larike Boano This content downloaded from 161.23.84.10 on Fri, 26 May 2017 14:47:59 UTC All use subject to http://about.jstor.org/terms 90 OCEANIC LINGUISTICS, VOL. XXIX, NO. 2 that of Collins (1980, 1982, 1983), who made several visits to Larike pri- marily in an effort to define more precisely the genetic classification of Moluccan languages; and that of Travis (1989), who gathered current wordlists for lexicostatistic comparison. Apart from being mentioned in these few sources, Larike has remained virtually an undocumented language.6 The following discussion of Larike pronouns is primarily a synchronic description. A number of example sentences are provided, most of them taken from recorded texts. These examples are provided not only to clarify usage and meaning of the pronouns, but also as a way of indirect- ly supplying initial documentation regarding features of Larike syntax. In addition to a synchronic description of free pronouns, pronominal affixes marking verbs, and possessive pronouns, a brief discussion is de- voted to diachronic considerations. 2. FREE PRONOUNS. Larike pronominals differentiate according to exclusive vs. inclusive, formal vs. informal, and human vs. nonhuman, as well as according to number. Four levels of number are distinguished: singular, dual, trial, and plural. Table 1 summarizes the various forms of Larike free pronouns.7 TABLE 1. FREE PRONOUNS SING DUAL TRIAL PLURAL 1 EXC a?u arua aridu ami INC itua itidu ite 2 ane irua iridu imi 3 HUM mane matua matidu mati The following examples illustrate the use of free pronouns:8 Ismail laku Jafar, irua apa? Ismail and Jafar 2d where 'Ismail and Jafar, where are you?' Arua au-lete. lde at-above 'We (two) are up above.' Mane ana kisale. 3s child alone 'He is an only-child.'

Ane panoste. 2s evil.thing 2s dirt 'You are an evil thing. You are dirt.' Nusa hima tahi musiai, kisa-kisa matidu mate?eke. island that not.exist people alone-alone 3t only 'The island didn't have many people, only the three of them.' Further example sentences are presented in Section 3, allowing first a brief discussion of pronominal affixes marking verbs. The intent is to avoid some confusion, since it is somewhat difficult to illustrate the use of free pronouns without also using verbs and their pronominal affixes. For simplicity, word stress is unwritten here. However it should be noted that the predominant pattern is penultimate stress on the root. In other words, stress does not shift with the addition of affixes. In the case of the pronouns described here, stress always falls on the penultimate syllable.9 Free pronouns do not exist for 3rd person nonhuman referents. In such cases the referent must either be explicitly stated or be referred to by way of the appropriate noun classifier. The 3rd person human pro- nouns may also be used to refer to nonhuman referents when human qualities (such as thinking or speaking) are being attributed to the referent. This is most often observed in folk stories. The label HUM in Table 1 is used to indicate that the 3rd person pronouns are reserved for human referents. Even though all of the free pronouns shown in Table 1 are generally limited in use to human referents (this applies to 1st, 2nd, and 3rd person free pronouns), the 3rd person HUM is useful as a reminder that other Larike pronoun sets (pronominal affixes as well as possessive suffixes) do distinguish between human and non- human 3rd person referents. This is discussed further in later sections. The formal vs. informal distinction is made only in the 2nd person singular, and is not indicated in Table 1. The informal term ane is used when addressing children or with friends near the same age (or younger) than the speaker. In addressing a person older than the speaker, and in other cases where a more formal register is warranted, the 2nd person plural form imi also functions as the 2nd person singular formal pro- noun. This same pattern occurs for subject and object prefixes, as well as for possessive prefixes, discussed in the following sections. The dual and trial forms are the result of elision, using the numbers dua 'two' and tidu 'three' in combination with the plural pronouns. Although this is discussed further in Section 5, Table 2 illustrates the various combinations.

A total of 112 species was recorded, including six of Bum's ten endemic species. Four of the endemic species, Pnoniturus mada, Monarcha loricatus, Rhipidura superflua and Zosterops buruensis were found to be quite common, but Lichmera deningeri and Cworacina fortis are considered to be uncommon or rare. The mountains or Burn from where Madanga ruficollis and Rhinomyias addita have previously beea collected were not visited. Concern is expressed concerning the status of two endemic parrots, Charmosyna toxopei and Tanypiathus gramineus, which were not conclusively recorded and which appear to have always been rare. Six species were recorded for the first tune on Buru. Introduction The Manchester Indonesia Islands Expedition visited the island of Buru between 8 Nov and 10 Dec 1989. The aim of the expedition was to obtain data related to the conservation of bird faunas. The results of the analysis of data on the ecology and habitat preferences of the bird species will appear elsewhere. The purpose of this paper is to present a systematic list of birds recorded on Bum by the expedition, and to publish notes collected for some of the species on moult, nests and vocalisations.

The largest and best documented are the events of 1770 and 1859 in the Molucca Sea region, of 1629, 1774 and 1852 in the Banda Sea region, the 1820 event in Makassar, the 1857 event in Dili, Timor, the 1815 event in Bali and Lom- bok, the events of 1699, 1771, 1780, 1815, 1848 and 1852 in Java, and the events of 1797, 1818, 1833 and 1861 in Sumatra. Most of these events caused damage over a broad region, and are asso- ciated with years of temporal and spatial clustering of earthquakes. The earthquakes left many cit- ies in ‘rubble heaps’. Some events spawned tsunamis with run-up heights .15 m that swept many coastal villages away. 2004 marked the recurrence of some of these events in western Indonesia. However, there has not been a major shallow earthquake (M ≥ 8) in Java and eastern Indonesia for the past 160 years.

  • Crisis and Failure: War and Revolt in the Ambon Islands, 1636-1637
    CAKALELE, VOL. 3 (1992) © Gcrrit J. K.naap CRISIS AND FAILURE: WAR AND REVOLT IN THE AMBON ISLANDS, 1636-1637 GERRIT J. KNAAP ROYAL INSTITUTE OF LINGUISTICS AND ANTHROPOLOGY, LEIDEN On January 14, 1637, kimelaha Leliato, the govcmor of the Tematan dependencies in Central Maluku, returned to his headquarters in Lusicla on Hoamoal from an expedition to Sapama with his hongi of 30 kora­ kora. The reason for his sudden rctum was that he had just received a message from Bum informing him of the approach of a large Dutch fleet. That fleet was under the supreme command of Governor-General Anthonic van Diemcn, the hi ghest official in the hierarchy in Asia of the Verenigde Oost-Indischc Compagnie (VOC), the Dutch East India Company. The reason for Van Diemcn's arrival in the islands was the crisis confrdnting VOC mlc there. For many years, since the Dutch had taken over a portion of the islands from the Pottugucsc in 1605, there had been a state of war or, at best, of anned peace with the Tcmatan dependencies in the same area. However, for the past few years the VOC had seen itself also confronted with growing opposition from the territories located between the Tcmatan and Dutch realms. Finally, in 1636, rebellion broke out among the inhabitants of the VOC's own do­ main, who had hitherto mostly supported the Dutch cause with their kora-kora in the hongi (Knaap 1987a: 17-22; Enkhuizen 399:2-3, 16). One might say that the events of 1636-1637 were the severest crisis the Dutch had been confronted with until that time.

  • Korupsi ADD Kelang Asaude, Periksa Camat
    SUBBAG HUMAS DAN TU KALAN MALUKU MEDIA : KABAR TIMUR Kamis, 18 Februari 2016 06:00 Korupsi ADD Kelang Asaude, Periksa Camat PIRU - Jaksa penyidik diminta kembangkan kasus dugaan penggelepan dana ADD Desa Kelang Asaude. Yaitu memeriksa pihak kantor kecamatan dan jajaran instansi teknis di atasnya. Diduga kuat aparat pemerintahan di atasnya dari camat hingga instansi terkait di Pemda Kabupaten SBB ikut terlibat. Dugaan penyimpangan dana ADD Desa Kelang Asaude merupakan kasus pertama di Maluku. Sejak program nasional milik Jokowi itu dilaunching secara nasional akhir tahun lalu. Jika kasus ini terungkap, ini merupakan sebuah prestasi bagi korps adhyaksa di Maluku. Sekaligus jadi pembelajaran awal untuk mencegah kasus-kasus yang sama merebak di seantero negeri dan desa di Maluku. “Camat Manipa Saleman Kibas harus diperiksa, dia harus tanggungjawab. Kok laporan tahap satu belum ada, dana tahap dua bisa cair. Itu karena ada andil camat Kibas,” kata Wakil Ketua Gerakan Pemuda Islam (GPI) Maluku Rimbo Bugis kepada Kabar Timur, Rabu, kemarin. Sialnya, bukan saja laporan pertanggungjawaban tahap I yang belum ada. Laporan yang sama untuk tahap II hingga sekarang pun tidak diketahui rimbanya. Saat pemeriksaan oleh jaksa penyidik Kejari Dataran Honipopu, Senin (15/2) lalu, Bendahara Desa Kelang Asaude Jafar Manitu tidak menyertakan dokumen laporan pertanggungjawaban ADD Tahap I dan II Tahun 2015 yang diminta jaksa penyidik. Belum dipastikan apakah laporan ADD tersebut hilang. Atau karena fiktif dan pelaku takut ketahuan. Atau tidak pernah dibuat sama sekali. Rimbo mengatakan, Saleman Kibas memberikan jaminan kepada pihak Badan Pemberdayaan Masyarakat Desa (BPMD) Kabupaten SBB, sehingga dana tahap dua dimaksud bisa cair. Padahal buntutnya, laporan pertanggungjawaban dana tahap satu ADD Desa Kelang Asaude belum juga dikantongi Camat Manipa Saleman Kibas, hingga saat ini.

Field data were gathered from the last remaining speaker of Hukumina and from the last four speakers of Kayeli. A significant historical event that set in motion changing social dynamics was the forced relocation by the Dutch in 1656 of a number of coastal communities on this and surrounding islands, which severed the ties between Hukumina speakers and their traditional place of origin (with its access to ancestors and associated power). The same event brought a large number of outsiders to live around the Dutch fort near the traditional village of Kayeli, creating a multiethnic and multilingual community that gradually resulted in a shift to Malay for both Hukumina and Kayeli language communities. This contrasts with the Buru language still spoken as the primary means of daily communication in the island's interior. Also, using supporting evidence from other languages in the area, the study concludes that traditional notions of place and power are tightly linked to language ecology in this region.
