What is Studies in Philippine Languages and Cultures about?

Manila: Linguistic Society of the Philippines, 1999. - 119 p. . Volume11 Number 1 This volume is divided into two parts. Part one consists of 12 Agutaynen language texts, accompanied by a foreword, introduction, and a list of abbreviations. Part two consists of one scholarly article, "Child Giving and Child Receiving in a Lowland Philippine Society," by Gail R. Hendrickson and Melissa S. Melvin. Agutaynen speakers number around 10,000, constituting approximately 2% of the population of their native Palawan province. Agutaynen Island, together with its surrounding islets, is the homeland of the Agutaynens. The island is approximately 15 square kilometers, and the population of the island is roughly 96% Agutaynen. Seven of the 12 texts in this collection were recorded on audio tape, and five were written by native speakers of the language. They were written and narrated at the request of the compiler between 1984 and 1989, with the exception of the last text, by Hendrickson and Melvin, which was written in 1991. Numerous tables, figures, and indexes are included. (KFT)
