The data for this dictionary were collected from August 1 9 6 7 to August 19 6 8 , and from May 1 9 6 9 to S eptember 19 6 9 , while I was engaged in doing re s e arch work for the PhD as a Re search S cholar at the Australian National University .

The first few months of the fieldwork

period were sp ent in or near Wab ag , in the Western Highlands of New Guinea , and the remainder at Kopete s a , Torenama , a small hamlet approximately thirty mile s w e s t of Wabag in the western dialect area of Enga ( s ee Map 1 ) . Among the many pe ople at the Aus tralian National University who have c ontributed to the present work , are the following :

Mis s K . E . W . Mather

and Mis s M . L . Ro s e did the data proces sing which resulted in the pub­ lication of the dictionary; Mr . H . E . Gunther and Mr . H . U . Pancino produced Map 1 ( based on a s imilar map of the New Guinea Lutheran Mis sion ) ; Dr . J . Flenley made available his list of b otanical s p e c imens , and Dr . D . McVean gave the c ommon names for the spe cimens; Dr . J . Hop e , Department of Prehistory , helped in the tentative identification of the Enga fauna , and Dr . Lyle Steadman helped in the definition of the Enga kin terms . Members of the Administration of the Territory of Papua-New Guinea who extended their help were Mr. Denys Faithful ( then A s s is tant District Commis sione r , Laiagam ) and Mr . Dave Hook ( As sistant District C ommis sioner , Wabag ) .

Laiagamer s Norma and Bill Christens en , Vernon

Burley and Fred Stevens receive, spe cial thanks for their ever-ready hospitality . The New Guinea Lutheran Mis s ion-Mi s s ouri Synod allowed my husband and me to attend the Enga language c ours e at Irelya; the individual membe rs who made c ontributions to this work are :

Dr . Paul Brennan ( who

provided the tones on 200 untoned items from a c omputer lis t after we left the field ) , Rev . Dave Houser ( who made available his p e r s o nal dictionary gleaned from a study of Enga myths and tale s ) , Rev . Jim Lars on ( who made available b oth his own and the Rev .

However , the greatest debt is to Ranier Lang ,

who contributed the re lative ly s e lf-contained Grammatical Sketch and encouraged me to embark on lexicography ( and a monolingual Enga dictionary ) .

He p rovided untiring comments , criticis m , time and

encouragement throughout the production of this work , at just tho s e moments when the c louds were darke st; i t is through h i s enc ouragement that this work at last reached the light .

I N T R ODU C T I O N

The Enga , who numb er s ome 150,000, live in mountainous c ountry in the Western Highlands District of New Guinea.

They o c cupy an area ( s ee

Map 1) which stretche s from the western s lopes o f Mt. Hagen we s twards to Porgera.

This area is draine d by the Minyamp , Amb urn , Lai , Sau , and

Upp e r Maramuni Rive rs , which flow into the Sepik; the Lagaip River ( to beyond the junction of the Porgera Rive r ) , which f l ows into the Strickland , and the Tari Rive r .

The Kyaka Enga , who live to the north

of Mt. Hagen township , o c cupy the area drained by the Baiyer River. The Enga are primarily s e dentary gardeners b ut also keep pigs and fowls.

The staple crop is sweet potatoe s grown in an e fficient system

of long fallowing (see Wadde l l 1 9 6 8 ) ; the s e are augmented by othe r root and leaf vegetab l e s.

A limited amount o f coffee ( among the Central

Enga ) and pyrethrum ( among the Laiagam Enga ) are grown as cash c rops; cattle have also b een introduced by the Australian Administration. Pigs , pearl she l l s , axes and p lume s are the conventionally ac cepted items o f wealth which circulate free ly , and exchanges of the s e valuab les mark all significant s o cial o c casions.

Pigs form the major item in the

te e exchange ( t e e p i n g ( re fers to the pig e xchange among the Central Enga ( e as t of Sirunki ) , and re fers to a death payment among the Western Enga ( Laiagam and further we st» .

Until the c oming o f the Pax

Australiana , Enga c lans c onstantly fought e ach other over land , women , and to avenge previous killings . The people b e l ong to named localized exogamous patricians; they live in homesteads scattered throughout the c lan territory , which has a sharply de fine d boundary.

Traditional ly men and women o c cupied separate

hous e s , since women were thought to be unc lean and dangerous to men , who had to use magic to p rotect themse lve s from female p o l lution. are no he reditary chie fs o r headmen :

There

instead wealthy men of influence

and power c ontrol the initiation and direction o f the p olitical and administrative activities o f each c l an.

The Enga are notab le among the

Highlanders for their pragmatic concern with the manipulation of wealth in various forms ( the traditional death payment s , te e exchange , modern trade store s , cattle raising , coffee and cash crop s ) , and the extension of a wealthy man ' s influence through the s o cial sy stem. This is a preliminary dictionary o f Enga , an abb reviated version o f a larger monolingual dictionary , which i s published now t o make availab l e f o r s cho lars and students thes e materials , pending the later pub lication of a c omplete monolingual Enga dictionary ( po s sib ly with an English index ) .

I have called this pub lication a ' dictionary ' fo llowing current

usage whereby a word list or g l o s s ary of any ' exotic '

( i. e. , little

xii

known ) language is termed a dictionary ( Finney et al . 1 9 6 4 , Draper n . d . , McKaughan and Macaraya 1 9 6 7 , Parker 1 9 70, Tryon and Dub ois 1 9 6 9 , t o name only a few ) .

The mos t e s s ential information from the larger

dictionary ( which is st ored in the c omputer ) is inc luded here , and the main aim has been to achieve a uniform leve l of c ontent with the high­ e s t degree of ac curacy pos sib l e at the pres ent time .

This is not a

learner ' s dictionary , but is written for those with at least an intro­ duc t o ry knowledge of Enga .

Similarly , the English Index does not

include extensive de finitions or s e l ection and s ub c ategorizational featur e s of English .

Main Entries

A l l entries in this di cti onary are presented as main entries . w a s done f o r two reasons :

Thi s

f i r s t ly , the di fficult ies at tendant upon t he

p roper d i s c riminat ion of potential sub -e ntries placed the s ub-entri e s b eyond the s c ope o f t h e present work ( c f . Mathiot 1967), and s e condly, the d i c t i onary was generat ed and checked by computer and the c ompu t e r w a s not p rogrammed t o dis criminate between s ub -entri e s .

O f t he four

entri e s for k a n � ( ' moon , month , s t one and shilling ' ) , e ach with a dif­ ferent s emant i c field , the c omputer considered them all t o b e equivalent s i n c e t hey were 'homonyms .

It was thus much s imp ler not t o deal with the

s ub-entries of e ach o f the four k a n � at the present t ime . 2.

Orthography

The orthography originally used in the c omputer was that of the, 1966 Orthography C o nference; the later c on ference in 1970 resulted in several major orthography change s , such as t he addition of homorganic pre-nasals of voiced consonants and rule s for the proper vowe l s equenc e s .

The s e

changes were ac c ompli shed o n the mas t e r file a t the t ime o f re-cre at i on by the c omput e r .

Suffixes The i n c lusi on o f morphemes in dict ionaries has b e e n crit i c i z e d, since

a non-native spe aker would not know where to make t he morpheme breaks . However, since Enga has an open syl lab le p at t e rn ( and thus non-native speakers can reasonab ly det ermine the morpheme b re aks) , and since the author wanted t o make the d i c t i onary as inc lusive as possib le, these are inc luded.

The grammat i cal morphemes are given an English g loss and

marked with the referen ce to the grammat i c al se c t ion of t he d i c t ionary for addit ional informat i on :

thus we find listed as an ent ry - a ka with

the English gl osses 'and', 'but' and the grammat i c al reference ( marked by *)

to the se ct ion '*concessive adversat ive'.

A lso t he i n c lusi on

of these morphemes al lowed the English Index t o inc lude 'and' , 'but' and the reference to '* concessive adversat ive' and t he Enga morpheme

-aka . Verbs are given in the hab it ual form, and all conjugat ed verb forms are omi t t e d, exc ept for those part i c iples or stat i ve forms whi ch are i rregular, and those inc luded in phrases.

When known, those verb forms

with f i xed t one on the first sy ll ab le are so noted.

4.

Phrases Some phrases are i n c luded in the dict ionary, mainly those whi c h have

been us ed in the Bib le t ranslations ( t hese are from Sche imann n.d . , and Burce 1 9 6 3 ) .

A typ i cal phrase whi c h was inc luded was that for ' c i ty',

'n d ' m a k i ma k f py60 ( l it eral ly 'houses,'in rows') . S.

Dialects Diale c t al variat i ons have been inc luded when known, and are so in­

dicated .

Thus the d i c t i onary has two main entries for 'old', a t ( n g (

(Western Enga dialect) and a s i n g ( ( Laiapo dialect) . 6.

Cross References The i t ems f o ll owing t he English gloss are re ferences t o other Enga

entries from the same or c losely re l at e d semant i c domains, where addit i onal information may be obtaine d .

The c ross re ferences and t he

main ent ry are not equivalent i tems or synonyms, and in most cases may NOT b e subst i t u t e d for e ac h other .

The entry a k6 1 a 'an edible snake' is

given the two cross refe rences mo t o p'e and pu i yo o , two other snakes ( but not nec essari ly the same spe c i es or edib le snakes - mo t o p'e is a python) .

These i t ems were inc luded in t he d i c t i onary in an att empt t o

inc lude as much informat ion as possib le i n each entry, inc luding such cross re ferences t o semant i c ally c lose ly related i tems ( c f . We inre i ch 196 2 ) .

xvi

7.

Spelling Various sp e l lings are inc luded, espec ially i f t h e s e are from dif­

ferent dialect areas, or from di fferent sources used in Bib l e t rans­ l at ion :

8.

g e t � p a f t � (from Burce 1963) and g e t e p a ( from Sche imann n.d. ) .

' Kind of' Entries Many glossaries and dictionaries use in the English defini t i ons such

items as 'kind o f t ree',

' kind of p l ant ' , 'kind o f b ird' , e t c.

The

present work does not use this not ation ( i.e., such that all memb ers o f a subset are marked as b e ing memb ers o f that set ) b ut inst ead fol lows the other possib ility, to mark the unique b e ginner or generic t erm for i tems of the set.

Thus, ident i fied t rees are so given 'mahogany ' ,

'b lack palm', e t c. ; unident ified t re es are marked simp ly as 't ree'; and the generic t e rm for t ree is marked 'tree - generi c t e rm'.

This was

done in an e ffort to simp l i fy the definit i ons and t o e liminate unneces­ sary rep e t i t i on of the phrases 'kind o f'. 9.

English Index - Glosses Engli sh glosses are list ed by the keyword o f the defini t ion, so that

' inde x finge r ' is not found under 'index' but under 'finger - index'. This was done t o p resent an array of the various 'finge rs ' t ogether as a group, rather than scattered throughout the dict ionary as individuals. Grammat i cal notat i ons are not given in the English Index, e x c ep t when the English entry o c curs as both a noun and a verb :

'love' (n), and

' l ove' (v) .

P HO N O L OGY

The orthography used is that of the Enga Orthography C onference (1970) held at Irelya and att ended by memb ers o f t he New Guinea Lutheran Mission-Missouri Synod, C atholic Mission, Aust rali an Bapt ist Mission, and t he author and her husband. The Enga l anguage has sixteen c onsonant phonemes :

Ib l , Id / , Ig l ,

Ij / , Ik / , Il l , Ily l , Im l , In / , / n y / , IQ / , Ip l , l s I, It l , the semi­ l a l , l e I, II I, 10 / , consonants / w / and Iy l , and five vowe l phonemes : It I quit e o ft en has a voiced alve o l ar t r i l l allophone inter­ and l u I. vo cali cally; Ik l as a rule is fri c at ivi zed b etween low and back vowels; Ib , d , g l are al l p renasalized; l s I word-ini t ially is [t s ), int er­ vo calic ally it fluctuates b e tween [d z) and [z); Ij l is phonet ically [n d z) or [n d �); II I is a voiced re t ro fle xe d flap; all syllab les are open and final vowels are devo iced.

xvii

There are two t oneme s in Enga which are b as i c al ly high and l ow .

The

t onal orthography used at pres ent is such t hat words marked with a t one

[(C)V(C)V), those • with a tone mark on the final s y l lab l e only [(C)V(C)V), and those with a t one mark on the last two syll ab les [(C)V(C)V). mark on their first s y l lab le only are tone t i cally •

Enga is one o f the Papuan ( i. e. non-Aust ronesian ) languages of New Guinea and as such it is characteri zed by a numb er of b asic grammatical facts common t o most o f them.

The s e facts relate t o such t hings as

word orde r , noun and verb morphology and the ways in which more complex sentences are forme d .

In some of t hese feat ures 'it di ffers radically

from English, part icularly in the verb morphology, in others , the d i f­ ferences are neg ligible. 1.0

W O RD AND SEN TENC E O RD E R

The most bas ic fact about Enga word orde r , and the one in which i t differs m o s t from English, i s that t h e main verb o f t h e s ent ence invariably is found in sentence-final posit ion.

From our knowledge o f

t h e language s of t h e world, t hi s b a s i c fact imp lies a numb e r of others relat ing t o word order and the order o f elements in general, such as 2 affixes and subordinat e clauses . In declarat ive sentences with nominal subj ect and object, the subject precedes t he object 1

O c c u r ri ng on n o u n s o n l y

There are s i x suffixes ( other t han cas e suffixe s ) l i s t e d i n the dic­ t i onary which occur on nouns only .

They are the conjunctive s uffix -p i

'and, even' ( 3 4) , two suffi xes of degree of or s imilarity to -I e ' rather ' and -y a l e 'like' ( 3 5, 36 ) , and two which empha s i ze or cont rast, an emphatic - m b a l 'very', and an argumentat ive -m b a 2

( 37, 38 ) .

Except for p a n d e 'or' which can only be used int errogat ive ly, Enga lacks a conj unct i on such as 'and' .

Inst ead it combines noun phra s e s via

the conj unctive suffix - p i which may b e added to all noun phra s e s t o b e comb ined o r t o the last one i n a series which i s usually then fol lowed by an ( addi tional) det erminer 34

V E RB M O R P H O L OGY Th i s is unque s t i onab ly the mo s t compl ex aspect of Enga grammar for

an Eng l i s h s peaker (especially if viewed within the wide r context o f syntax) .

Th i s is due to the fact that Enga does not have any s ub­

ord inat i ng or co-ordinating conj unct i ons such as 'and', 'when', 'because', e tc. ; that it has no modal aux i liari e s such as 'can', 'want', 'ought to', etc.; and that it has no pre p o s i t i ons such as 'for', 't o', 'o f', etc.

Enga, on the other hand, has grammatical devices which

expre s s var i ous modal i t i e s which in Eng l i sh can only be rendered periphrast ically such as 'I think', 'it appears to me', 'there is s o l i d evidence for', 'it i s said', etc.

The numb er o f concep t s and kinds of

act i ons that can b e expre s sed in Enga through suffixes on the verb i s nearly unlimi ted, and i t has been said therefore, that the verb " dominat e s " the language . Within the w ider context of language uni versals, as a main-verb­ alway s- in-final-po s i t ion language, it should b e noted that the que s t i on suffix 46

always occurs in s ent ence f inal p o s i t i on;

use if an act ion or event involves exactly two actors or act ions . Depending on the person or tens e , t he declarat ive mode is s ignalled ob ligatori ly t hrough the augment s -mo and - n o .

The declarat ive mode

and all of the person-number and t ense suffixe s are i llus trat ed in Tab l e 1, us ing the root l a - 'utt er'. Viewed s yntact ically , cert ain verb suffixes conj oin sentence s , others embed them , modally or aspectual ly; yet a few others mark cas e re lat i on­ ships or nominalize verb s.

It is di fficult somet ime s t o det ermine

whe ther a given suf fix is now conj o ining or embedding , or whether one can be said to be a modal or an aspectual suffix and there is s t i l l much re s earch to be done on the "deep" grammar o f Enga.

The clas­

s i ficat ion pre sented b e low , there fore , does not neces sari ly repres ent any logic inherent in the phenomena thems e lves; it is primarily an att empt to provide the reader with some de scriptive order. A charact eri s t ic of Enga (and one which it shares with most other Papuan languages ) is the d i s t inction between the so-called s entence­ medial and s ent ence-final verb forms.

While this di s t inct ion must be

viewed a s an ext reme ly trivial one from a deep syntactic point o f view , it is of pro found importance on the surface leve l .

As has b e e n p o inted

out already , there is one ma in verb for each sentence , and it always occurs in final p o s it ion in the surface s t ructure of that sent ence .

In

a normal declarative sentence , the order is subj ect-obj ect -verb : 47

The se suffixe s vary , depend­

ing on whether the subject s of the t wo sent ences are co-re ferent ial or not.

C o-ordinate and subordinate s entences with co-re ferential subj ect s
