Elicitation session checking place of articulation of affricates. Rebecca asked Da Adzo to say all of the words that Rebecca and Saskia had found with affricates. This was in order to check the place of articatulation of these affricates because older speakers have a phonemic contrast between alveolar and palatal affricates while younger speakers do not. So we had many words with affricates where we were unsure of the place of articulation. This list of words is also checked with Fo Yao in a later session. English was the language of discussions and elicitation, Avatime was the target language.
