<p class="MsoNormal">Hi all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Some of you know that Gari Tudor-Smith, Paul Williams and I are writing a general audience ‘Bina: First Nations Languages Old and New’.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">It’s been great to have spoken to so many of you for the book!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We are just adding a section about the word ‘bina’, ‘binang’, ‘pina’ etc across the continent. For some people it means ‘ear’ and for others ‘knowing’. We’d love to make a bit of a table which spans Australia to show the extent of the word
and its related meanings.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If you’d like to contribute, please me separately (just to avoid too much list traffic).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">BTW if anyone else is interested in this topic, this is a great paper:<o:p></o:p></p>
