Comparative Kadu wordlists.
In: Afrikanistische Arbeitspapiere, 40, pp. 11-48.
The paper contains lexical data on nine Krongo-Kadugli dialects, collected by the author during his own fieldwork in the Nuba Mountains in 1974-75. This is an essential source of unique material, although further comparison shows that it is not entirely free of inaccuracies in either phonetic transcription or semantic glossing, and has to be used with caution.
