Welcome!
Here you can stay connected with our life and work with Wycliffe Bible Translators, through whom we have served the church worldwide since 2001. We have the privilege to help develop alphabets for unwritten languages.
We could not do this without the partnership of many. Whether it is a timely prayer over us at 2am, a note or package to show you’re still behind us, or whatever financial help God has called you to send for the support of our Wycliffe ministry, we are humbled by the sacrificial support of you, our partners. You are a continuous reminder of God’s power and faithfulness. God will complete His work, but we are privileged to join Him in it. And you, too, are in the trenches with us, serving to the glory of God.
Your airways close or constrict in lots of interesting ways, and not the same in each language.
Air passing freely through your throat and mouth (and maybe your nose!) can produce different sounds, which are again not used the same in each language
Contrastive pitch (from your vocal chords) can distinguish one word from another, or one use of a word from another use of the same word. Each language that does this will have its own system.
During our trip to Cameroon, our Avocado tree reminded us first fruits and the long game. This post also includes a discussion of Settlers of Catan (and other Engine Building Games), and finally a Where's Waldo (avocado version).
On our last day in Cameroon, one of Anna’s best friends stopped by for a visit, and I got some video (through the screen):
On our recent trip to Cameroon, our pastor wanted to say a few words on camera
From the dedication you have shown working with the Senga team for Senga language development, it's clear indication your services are far reaching.
