This course will become read-only in the near future. Tell us at community.p2pu.org if that is a problem.
The materials in this group are designed to assist a home-based learner of Shiyeyi in learning to speak and/or read & write the Shiyeyi language. Shiyeyi is a language which is spoken primarily in Botswana and Namibia.
Drawing upon all of the Shiyeyi textual resources available, create a digital Shiyeyi glossary. Sources should include books such as the Shiyeyi, Setswana and English Picture Dictionary (ISBN: 9912-964-91) and Stephen Lukusa's Shiyeyi-English Dictionary.
The glossary can be compiled in a note-taking program (such as NoteBook), from which it can be exported as html. Alternatively, it can be created in a word processing program and exported as a pdf. Either method will provide a glossary that can be easily searched when looking for the approximate meaning of a Shiyeyi word.
So far, I have typed in the words up to intjutju (pain).
I am looking into a way of storing the glossary online, currently considering Elovivo online dictionary system.
