hello
I am planning to return to Cameroon in December and I am wondering
whether to attempt to translate a sample paragraph of academic
theorising into the Mambila language - as an attempt to make
concrete both the problems of Translation and Theory!
I would be interested to receive suggestions for candidate paragraphs
to tackle.
best wishes
davidz
