The Pronunciation and Orthography of the Chindau Language
Excerpt from The Pronunciation and Orthography of the Chindau Language
The Object of the present paper is to record in outline the pronunciation of the native African language known as Chindau, and incidentally to show how readily the alphabet of the International Phonetic Association may be used as a current system of writing languages which have hitherto never been written down, or which have at present no fixed orthography.
