This archive contains audio recordings for the Multi-CAST Teop corpus (Mosel & Schnell 2015), originally published in May 2015 with version 1505 of the Multi-CAST collection (Haig & Schnell 2015). The annotation and documentation files accompanying these files have been archived separately. The recordings are available as WAV and MP3 files.

Teop [teop1238] is a Western Oceanic language spoken on Bougainville Island, Papua New Guinea. The texts, all traditional narratives, were recorded by Ulrike Mosel and Enoch Horai Magum over the course of a language documentation project (principal investigator: Ulrike Mosel) funded by the Volkswagen Foundation (grant no. II 77 973). Details on the project can be found online at the DOBES webpage.

A sketch grammar of Teop (Mosel & Thiesen 2007) and additional materials are also available there, and an online dictionary (A multifunctional Teop-English dictionary, Mosel 2019) can be found here. The texts were annotated for Multi-CAST by Ulrike Mosel and Stefan Schnell; referent indexing with RefIND was added in 2019 by Ulrike Mosel, Stefan Schnell, and Maria Vollmer.
