Dear colleagues,

I was advised to register in this mail forum by my colleague Gunter Senft. I would like to ask you for help concerning the following project:

I am a retired professor of general and applied linguistics (Univ. of Innsbruck, Austria). Among my research areas are rhetoric and argumentation and contrastive linguistics (Latin-German, Turkish-German).

Besides, I am writing a popular booklet about general names for "butterfly" in 200 languages. With this project, I would like to draw the attention of interested lay people to the endangered status of both these charming creatures and many small indigenous languages.

Of course, I am not competent as far as the vast majority of these 200 languages is concerned. That is why I ask native speakers and experts for help and to have a controlling look at my data, which I collected from dictionaries, grammars, articles, and available internet sources.

All in all, I have data from 11 Austronesian languages, including Bahasa Indonesian, Tagalog, Cebuano, Maori, Malagasy, Samoan, Fijian and Hawaiian.

If some of you could help me, I would like to send you the data of the respective language(s).

Best regards and a happy new year 2022, take care,

Manfred Kienpointner
