Abstract

Description

This session focused on two short sessions of connected speech with Lenny Saumar. FM6-032-01 is a recording of the Pear Story. First, Lenny and the rest of the group watched the Pear Story video together. A few minutes later, Lenny told the story in Woleaian. FM6-032-02 is a recording of a traditional story of Lenny’s choice. This story is about a swordfish and a beach crab. The swordfish and the beach crab race, but the beach crab tricks the swordfish by placing his friends at various points along the beach, to pop out of the sand, making the swordfish believe he is always losing. At the end, the swordfish rushes to the finish and gets his lip stuck in a coconut tree. This is why the swordfish has one very short lip.
