A short morphology, phonology
and vocabulary of Kiput, Sarawak
Robert Blust
Kiput is a member of the Berawan-Lower
Baram branch of the North Sarawak subgroup of Austronesian
languages, spoken by perhaps 450 people. The entire language
community resides in a single longhouse known variously as
Long Kiput, Long Tutoh or Kuala Tutoh, located on the Baram
river, Fourth Division, Sarawak, about one kilometre from
its junction with the Tutoh. Very little has been published
on this language. The principal aim of the present work is
to provide an overview of the synchronic morphology and phonology
of Kiput, a considerably longer and more accurate vocabulary
than that in Ray (1913), and several hundred sentences.
