Description

These files were created by Chamorro community members in the CNMI who were asked to provide sentence examples of the usage of some block of words from the 1975 Chamorro-English Dictionary. Some files are scanned (.pdf) versions of hard-copy submissions; other submissions are in Word (.docx) format. The plain text submissions are in SIL's Toolbox format. The files are organized by year of submission (as indicated by 2008, 2009, or 2010 in the filename). None of the submissions have been edited or processed in any way. The Dictionary editors, who are Dr. Elizabeth D. Rechebei, Manuel F. Borja, and Tita A. Hocog, also plan to archive the final revised, edited version of the work, so that future generations will be able to consult it.

Description

A set of files used to create the 1975 Chamorro-English Dictionary, which was authored by Donald M. Topping, Pedro M. Ogo, and Bernadita C. Dungca and published by the University of Hawaii Press. There are 6 text files of dictionary entries formatted for printing. There are also 3 program files (with filenames ending SPT), 6 files containing alphabetized lists of words (with filenames ending FIL) and 6 files containing alphabetized lists of words with their morphological breakdown (with filenames ending SRT). The programs were written by Robert Hsu, who was on the Linguistics faculty of the University of Hawaii at the time. The files were provided to the CNMI editors of the Revised Chamorro-English Dictionary by Kenneth Rehg of the University of Hawaii.
