Opis

Excerpt from A Sechuana Reader: In International Phonetic Orthography (With English Translations) Early in 1915 it was my good fortune to make the acquaintance of Mr. Solomon Plaatje, a native Bechuana, and as I found him to possess unusual linguistic ability, I suggested to him that a useful purpose would be served if we were to make an analysis of his native language on modern phonetic lines. He readily agreed, and between May 1915 and September 1916 we had constant meetings, and have succeeded in producing a very complete and, we believe, accurate record of the pronunciation of this extraordinarily interesting language, including what has, as far as I know, never before been attempted, viz. the determination of the precise nature of the tones. It is for various reasons not possible to publish the whole of our results at the present time. The remainder will, however, be forthcoming when opportunity offers. We hope, in particular, to give at some future date much more detailed descriptions of every sound and instructions as to how each sound may be acquired by the foreign learner. Mention may be made here of one feature of Sechuana pronunciation which we have not yet completely fathomed, and which must be left for future investigations.
