✦ Synopsis

Pacific Linguistics, Research School of Pacific and Asian Studies, Australian National University, 1979. — xii + 139 p. ISBN 085883183X
The Big Nambas language is spoken by approximately 2000 people throughout North Malekula. At present there are nineteen inhabited Big Nambas villages which use the language exclusively, but there is no evidence of dialect variation throughout the area in which it is spoken. The Big Nambas language has never been studied in depth previously. Some early word-lists are extant, but their phonology is misleading.
