A description of different types of animals. Two parts were recorded on 04/05/2004 (V04ANLwa1, V04ANLwa2), and one on 06/05/2004 (D04ALwa3). This project documents the Goemai language (Afroasiatic, Chadic, West Chadic A, Angas-Goemai, Southern branch; spoken in Central Nigeria) in the form of a comprehensive reference grammar, a dictionary and an annotated corpus of natural texts. A. is the main narrator, while N. listens (in D04ALwa3). Both participate equally in the discussions that plan the description (in V04ANLwa1, V04ANLwa2).
