Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Living in a free built home is good and living in a home that is of your own hands, is even better. It makes sense if you know the detail of a property which own. It makes you proud because you know how you come to have it as your own property. It could also make sense if someone gave you a gift of an item which you had never seen and ask the gift giver how he/she comes to have it in the first place. How it was made and what are the compositions of this material. It is the right thing to know the detail of the gift so that you can be able to make further innovation for its life time. Be vigilance, know your environment, and recognize a friend who pulled you out when your vehicle got mired in a muddy road. And he/she would appreciate you if he/she heard that, you never get stuck in that road again because you had paved, bridged and black topped the road.

Download or read book Outlines of a Nuer Grammar 2023 Edition written by Joseph Pasquale Crazzolara and published by . This book was released on 2023-10-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1933, Father J. P. Crazzolara published the first and most complete grammar of the Nuer language (Thok Nath) created to date. Nuer is currently spoken as a first language by several million South Sudanese and Ethiopian citizens who collectively identify themselves as "nei ti Nath" or "Nath" in their own language. It is also spoken by several hundred thousand other people who are currently residing as refugees in other African countries and in Australia, Canada, Europe, UK and the USA as part of an expanding worldwide diaspora. Father J. P. Crazzolara's pioneering Nuer-English Dictionary remains an essential linguistic resource for the preservation of this now, endangered, African language. Despite its pivotal importance for the perpetuation of this language in both written and oral forms, it has been unavailable to the public for nearly 90 years--until now! The new, expanded, 2023 edition of this remarkably comprehensive grammar includes a new chapter composed by Father Christian Carlassare in honor of Father Crazzolara's life and scholarship. This is an essential linguistic resource for individuals who wish to gain oral and literacy skills in both Nuer and English. Paperback copies can be purchased directly from the publisher through its website (www.nuerdilemmas.com) and by email ([email protected]).

Download or read book A Leopard Tamed written by Eleanor Vandevort and published by Hendrickson Publishers. This book was released on 2018-02-01 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Set in Nasir, a tiny village on the banks of the Sobat River in the Sudan, A Leopard Tamed reads like the story of another world, of another time—but it is very much of our world, our time. Eleanor Vandevort is an American missionary who lived with the Nuer tribe in Nasir for thirteen years. A Leopard Tamed is the vivid, exciting description of what those years were like for her. Eleanor became friendly with Kuac, a small boy whose burning ambition was “to do the work of God.” He proved invaluable in helping her. He taught her his language, which enabled her to translate the Bible for the Nuer people for the first time. After she discovered he was a born teacher, he even led Bible classes for her. Although Kuac is the central figure in this engrossing story, it is also the story of the whole Nuer tribe. A Leopard Tamed stirs the reader with strange tribal customs—such as the brutal rites initiating young boys into manhood; a typical native wedding; detailed description of housing, cooking, child-bearing, and so on. The author transports us to a land “that lies flat on its back, rolled out like a pie crust and crisscrossed with a network of footpaths linking village to village. The path is the highway in this land, covering hundreds and hundreds of miles, the imprint of a people who walk in order to communicate and who must communicate in order to live.” This special 50th anniversary edition includes the original introduction by Elisabeth Elliot and a new introduction by Valerie Elliot Shepard.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This handbook provides a comprehensive account of the languages spoken in Ethiopia, exploring both their structures and features and their function and use in society. The first part of the volume provides background and general information relating to Ethiopian languages, including their demographic distribution and classification, language policy, scripts and writing, and language endangerment. Subsequent parts are dedicated to the four major language families in Ethiopia - Cushitic, Ethiosemitic, Nilo-Saharan, and Omotic - and contain studies of individual languages, with an initial introductory overview chapter in each part. Both major and less-documented languages are included, ranging from Amharic and Oromo to Zay, Gawwada, and Yemsa. The final part explores languages that are outside of those four families, namely Ethiopian Sign Language, Ethiopian English, and Arabic. With its international team of senior researchers and junior scholars, The Oxford Handbook of Ethiopian Languages will appeal to anyone interested in the languages of the region and in African linguistics more broadly.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the short brief expression of the Nuer background. Since Nuer history is Oral and the transfer becomes difficult, I designed this book as the step to find out and to research all significant histories which our societies went on in the past. Furthermore, this kind of history book is designed to remind and inspire our people to go further on research to find out the full important history of Nuer Nation. It could help us to understand our past and would show us our oneness since past periods. Nuer are the peoples with unique and very interesting history in south Sudan as well as in Africa. But if we live just without putting our ability to discover those kinds of events, we will be annulled by the false world historians. Unquestionably, in every moment our people made hits. Nuer people are the peoples with equal opportunity, right and obligations over their land. They made a significant history during their expansion, colonialism and in the national civil war of Sudan. In my conversations with Nuer elder peoples, I was impressed to hear these important histories. our society It is what led me to write this book. History as the genius language, I suggested to every reader of this book to contribute in the expansion of our story to provide a true, full and significant history of.
