Buhi'non (Bikol) Digital Wordlist: Presentation Form

Abstract

This paper presents a 207-item digital wordlist of Buhi’non, an Austronesian language spoken in the Philippines. The wordlist includes a broad phonetic transcription of each word, an English gloss, an individual WAV recording of each item, and metadata for resource discovery. An archival form of the wordlist was deposited into an institutional archive (Kaipuleohone, the University of Hawai‘i Digital Ethnographic Archive) and includes the original WAV file of the entire wordlist recording session, descriptive markup encoding of the wordlist in XML employing Unicode transcription, TIFF images of the original field transcriptions, and the metadata record. The presentation form was then generated directly from the archival form.
