Terve Yksin,
Thank You for Your letter.
The changes I did after Your concerns are annoted in Beauty of tension between diversity versus unity, containing subpage Bidirectional approach to organize the beauty of tension between diversity versus unity of cultures. I tried to explain my motivations there. But I know only very few things, thus these are only thoughts, i do not stick to them.
Thank You for Your offer to add Yup'ik-specific information to Shamanism among Eskimo peoples later. And I wish much success also to Your Central Alaskan Yup'ik pages (language and people). Do You speak any Yupik language? Do You read tales in them? I try to learn Ungazik by reading tales /uˈŋipaʁaːn/:
iːmnaŋuq. | People say that it was long time ago. |
juˈɣɨt tal̥iːmat aŋˈlɨɣutˈkul̥χit. | There were five men, five brothers. |
naˈjaxtɨŋ aɣvil̥qɨlʲ̥uːku. | Their sister, the sixth of them. |
naːlɣɨt aˈma ataːlɣɨt. | They have a mother, and also a father. |
qujŋiχtupiːxlʲ̥ɨχit. | They have a huge amount of deer. |
taːxkɨn tawaːni kiˈjaχsiˈmalʁit. | So they lived there. |
maːtɨn iˈlʲaŋaˈni mɨkɨlʁiːq nuˈjɨkl̥iχpiːɣaq iflʲaːmalʁi. | One day, the eldest boy got lost. |
taːxkɨn tawaːni kiˈjaχsiˈmalʁit. | So they lived there. |
muˈlʲunʁiˈtuq iˈlʲaŋaˈlʲ̥u mɨkɨlʁiːq qujŋiχqwaːχtɨˈŋujalʁi taːnalʲ̥u iflʲaːmalʁi. | Soon another boy, guarding the herd, got lost too. |
qɨnˈwat, mɨˈkɨlʁiːʁɨt piˈŋajuˈxaχtut. | Already only three boys remained. |
tawaːni kiˈjaχtut. | So they lived there. |
I began also with Sireniki language.
Have a nice time on Your two-week vacation.
