Uab Meto Language
Uab Meto or Dawan is an Austronesian language cluster spoken by the Atoni people of the Indonesian region of West Timor, as well as the East Timorese municipality of Oecussi-Ambeno. In East Timor and other Portuguese-speaking countries the language is often called Baikenu (), but more narrowly this term refers only to the variety spoken in East Timor, which is more influenced by Portuguese rather than Indonesian (for example, using for 'thank you', instead of the Indonesian ). In other languages it may also be erroneously referred to as West Timorese (with Tetum being "East Timorese") or even just Timorese, but these terms are misleading, as they ignore the linguistic diversity on both sides of the island. Phonology Dawan has the following consonants and vowels: Voiceless plosives can have unreleased allophones in word-final position. A phonemic can be heard in place of among dialects. Vocabulary A wordlist of 200 basic vocabulary items is available at the A ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Helliconia
The Helliconia trilogy is a series of science fiction books by British writer Brian W. Aldiss, set on the Earth-like planet Helliconia. It is an epic chronicling the rise and fall of a civilisation over thousands of years as the planet progresses through its incredibly long seasons, which last for centuries. The trilogy consists of the books '' Helliconia Spring'' (published in 1982), '' Helliconia Summer'' (1983), and '' Helliconia Winter'' (1985). Synopsis As the books of the trilogy take place centuries apart and lack a central protagonist—instead giving time to many members in a cast of characters, such as the lineage of Yuli the Priest (''Helliconia Spring'') or the royal household of Borlien (''Helliconia Summer'') -- the true substance of the series is, in one sense, the planet itself and its science, especially in the light of James Lovelock's Gaia Hypothesis. Aldiss obtained help from many Oxford academics learned in many fields of study -- astronomy, geology, clim ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
