Language: Lemerig

Identifiers: | ISO-639-3:lrz Glottocode: leme1238 | |
Notes: | This language is spoken on Vanua Lava (Vanuatu, Banks) and has only two speakers left. New iso code = lrz; but not yet in Ethnologue. The data here are based on my field notes with one of these speakers. http://alex.francois.free.fr/AF-field.htm#Vanuatu Transcriptions are in IPA. Possessed (inalienable) nouns are here given in 3sg form (-n suffix) As usual, I provide you with the etymology when I know it for sure. This etymology is sometimes at POc level, sometimes at a higher or lower level in the AN tree. When it is a local etymology (north Vanuatu) I indicate this with 2 stars. | |
