    • Collection identifier: 2020-11
    • Relations to this Collection: 2016-14 relates to this Collection
    • Primary contributors: Guy Tchatchouang (consultant); Geoff Bacon (researcher); Steven Bird (researcher); Andrew Cheng (researcher); Emily Clem (researcher); Virginia Dawson (researcher, donor); Larry M. Hyman (researcher, donor); Anna Jurgensen (researcher); Erik Hans Maier (researcher); Alice Shen (researcher)
    • Language: Tswefap (nnz)
    • Dates: 2015-2016
    • Historical information: This collection consists of materials produced by students of the graduate-level field methods course in the Department of Linguistics at UC Berkeley between August 2015 and April 2016. The course was co-taught by Prof. Larry Hyman and Dr. Steven Bird, and the language consultant was Guy Tchatchouang. All other listed contributors were students enrolled in the course or occasionally auditing it. Mr. Tchatchouang is a native speaker of Tswefap from Douala, Cameroon, and was a Berkeley undergraduate student at the time.
    • Scope and content: This collection is organized into three series: 001 consists of sound recordings of elicitation sessions conducted as a full class and in small groups, together with transcriptions in TextGrid files; 002 is preliminary descriptive material (e.g., handouts presented in class, data organized in spreadsheets); 003 is field notes.

    • Collection identifier: 2016-14
    • Relations to this Collection: 2020-11 relates to this Collection
    • Primary contributors: Guy Tchatchouang (consultant, donor); Emily Clem (researcher, donor); Erik Hans Maier (researcher, donor); Evelyn Najarian (researcher)
    • Additional contributor: Larry M. Hyman (researcher)
    • Language: Tswefap (nnz)
    • Dates: 2016-
    • Historical information: This collection contains materials from elicitation sessions with Tswefap speaker Guy Tchatchouang. Tchatchouang was born in Douala, Cameroon, and learned to speak the Tswefap language at home and during holidays when spending time with grandparents in Tswefap/Batoufam. Tchatchouang served as a consultant for the 2015-2016 graduate field methods course (Linguistics 240A-B) at the University of California, Berkeley, taught by Larry Hyman. The elicitation sessions in this collection come from a continued collaboration on the language between Tchatchouang and Emily Clem and Erik Hans Maier, who had been students in the field methods course. For orthography development (see Scope and content), research assistant Evelyn (Evy) Najarian supported the project through Berkeley's Linguistics Research Apprentice Practicum (LRAP).
    • Scope and content: Audio recordings of elicitation sessions, scanned notes, and alphabet illustrations. Elicitation sessions include a combination of targeted grammatical investigation on topics such as quantification, binding, and comparatives, as well as exploratory work to support community-oriented initiatives, such as orthography development.
