Ce fut en 1964 que la quatorzime session de la Confrence gnrale de l'Unesco dcida d'inclure, dans le programme priori-taire de l'Organisation, le Projet d'histoire gnrale de l'Afrique dont les problmes de mise en uvre furent examins au cours de runions internationales d'experts tenues Abidjan, Niamey et Ouagadougou.

Dans le cadre de ce Projet, l'Afrique nigro-soudanienne retint l'attention des spcialistes surtout en raison de l'abondance et de la varit des sources orales, crites, archologiques et sculpturales dont elle dispose.

Les besoins de coordonner la collecte et l'analyse de ces sources relatives l'his-toire de nationalits souvent identiques de part et d'autre des frontires politiques des nouveaux tats soudaniens rendirent nces-saire la cration du Centre rgional de docu-mentation pour la tradition orale (C.R.D.T.O.) tabli en 1968 Niamey. Charg de la mise en uvre du Plan rgional de recher-ches sur la tradition orale et de la coordi-nation des projets de coopration entre les instituts et universits de la rgion, le Centre s'adresse notamment aux tats suivants: Cameroun, Cte d'Ivoire, Dahomey, Gam-bie, Ghana, Guine, Haute-Volta, Libria, Mali, Mauritanie, Niger, Nigria, Sngal, Sierra-Lone, Tchad et Togo.

Aux termes de ses statuts provisoires, il tablit et excute son programme en consultation avec les tats membres et en collaboration avec leurs instituts nationaux de recherche. Il exerce ses activits dans le cadre des programmes tablis en accord avec les tats membres et approuvs par l'U nesco.

A cet effet, il dite un bulletin de liaison, accorde des bourses de recherches aux institutions nationales des tats membres, apporte son aide des chercheurs indivi-duels, organise des stages de formation technique et publie, dans le cadre de ses collections Langues africaines et Cultures africaines, des ouvrages largement diffuss en Afrique et dans le reste du monde.

INTRODUCTION

En septembre 1962 se tenait Prague, sous les auspices de l'Union acadmique internationale et de ru nesco, un Col-loque international pour l'Afrique et l'Asie, qui recommanda que ft entreprise la rdaction d'un dictionnaire trilingue peul-franais-anglais.

Une rsolution du cinquime Congrs des Langues de l'Afrique occidentale, runi en avril 1965 l'Universit d'Accra, intgra ce projet tout un programme de recherche fondamentale labor par le Groupe d'tudes peules nouvel-lement constitu sous les auspices de la Socit linguistique de l'Afrique occidentale.

Par la suite, le projet peul intressa un certain nombre d'tats et de centres de recherches africains qui demandrent que le programme d'activits de ce Groupe ft tendu au hawsa, s0!Jay, tamasheq, bambara et kanuri; ce qui permit l'Unesco de runir Bamako, en mars 1966, une Confrence linguistique consultative pour l'uniformisation des transcrip-tions des langues inter-africaines d'alphabtisation.

En vue de la mise en uvre immdiate du matriel didac-tique indispensable l'application des campagnes nationales d'alphabtisation utilisant les langues africaines tudies

7

Bamako, la Confrence prsenta un ensemble de propositions systmatiques dont les plus immdiates visaient l'labora-tion de dictionnaires pratiques, de grammaires lmentaires et de manuels de lecture.

Ainsi, la demande de quelques tats membres africains (Cameroun, Guine, Mali, Niger et Nigeria), l'Unesco fit entreprendre la rdaction du prsent ouvrage qui constitue un dictionnaire trilingue destin fixer l'orthographe des mots courants et runir les donnes fondamentales sur les divers dialectes du fulfulde.

Son laboration fut confie M. David W. Arnott, profes-seur de langues de l'Afrique occidentale la School of Oriental and African Studies de l'Universit de Londres qui tablit une liste de base d'environ 5 000 mots portant essen-tiellement sur le parler peul de Gomb (Nigeria) et acces-soirement sur des dialectes du groupe oriental (damwa, Sokkoto, Kano, Niger oriental) et du groupe occidental (Fota-Dialon, Fota-Tro, Mcina, Haute-Volta et Niger occidental) l'auteur ayant pu, par le pass, sjourner dans toutes ces contres. Ainsi rdig, l'ouvrage- fut valu par le Groupe d'experts pour l'laboration de dictionnaires ... en vue de l'alphabtisation en Afrique runi en avril 1967 la Maison de l'Unesco. Le groupe recommanda que le manuscrit ft publi aprs rvision de la version franaise et valuation sur le terrain nigrien situ au confluent des parlers ~orientaux et occidentaux du fulfulde et, partant, l'un des plus intressants pour l'tude des variations dialec-tales. .

La version franaise de la traduction anglaise des mots peuls fut revue et corrige par M. Pierre-Francis Lacroix, professeur l'cole nationale des Langues orientales vivantes de Paris.

Au cours de l'anne 1967, l'Unesco confia la vrification du dictionnaire sur le terrain nigrien deux consultants peuls, M. Eldridge Mohamadou du Centre fdral linguistique et culturel de Yaound et moi-mme. M. Mohamadou fit ses vrifications dans des localits du Niger oriental pendant que,

8

de mon ct, je travaillais sur des isoglosses du Niger occidental.

Au terme de ces enqutes, l'ouvrage fut soumis, pour mise en forme dfinitive, au deuxime Stage rgional de formation linguistique organis Niamey en aot I968, qui le vrifia et le complta grce la collaboration des stagiaires et du consultant de langue peule runis cette occasion.

V ne ultime mise en forme rdactionnelle me fut confie par l'V nesco; je ne pus la mener terme que grce la collaboration d'une quipe compose de Mlle Jolle Laurent, diplme de l'cole nationale des Langues orientales vivantes qui prparait une thse sur les Contes peuls ; Mme Marie-Jos Mencacci, diplme d'tudes suprieures anglaises et M. Geoffrey V arley, journaliste anglais la Nouvelle agence de presse (N .A.P.).

Le dictionnaire pratique ainsi labor est un lexique de base destin l'alphabtisation. Cela signifie qu'il ne constitue gure une liste exhaustive des termes utiliss, mme frquem-ment, dans les activits conomiques et professionnelles impor-tantes des principaux dialectes. C'est un dictionnaire l-mentaire.

Destin l'alphabtisation, il fait suite au syllabaire1 et au manuel de lecturefulfulde2 Il propose ainsi, son tour, une standardisation de l'orthographe par-del les frontires poli-tiques, en vue de promouvoir la comprhension mutuelle au niveau des communauts linguistiques et des rgions gogra-phiques qui utilisent lefulfulde comme instrument de commu-nication. ce titre, il servira indiquer et fixer l'ortho-graphe correcte du vocabulaire usuel de la langue selon la transcription recommande par la Confrence de Bamako et selon les rgles de notation proposes par la commission de peul qui travailla dans le cadre de cette confrence.

Il n'a point paru ncessaire de donner la liste complte et parfaitement nuance des sens possibles de chacun des mots

du lexique. Ce travail revient de droit au dictionnaire culturel de la langue peule dont le projet avait t arrt lors du Colloque de Prague et du Congrs d'Accra.

L'ordre des mots, dans le dictionnaire, est le suivant: a, e, i, 0 et u pour les mots qui commencent par l'occlusive glottale; et b, , mb, c, d, ri, nd,f, g, ng, Iz,j, nj, k, l, m, n, '!), 1!Y, p, q, r, s, t, w, x, y,JP et Z pour ceux qui commencent par des consonnes.

Le texte donne l'orthographe des radicaux verbaux avec les suffixes du subjonctif -a si le verbe est actif (VA), -00 s'il est moyen (VM) et -aa s'il est passif (vp). Il et t prfrable, pour viter quelques rptitions, d'indiquer entre parenthses, aprs chaque radical verbal, les abrviations usuelles (VA-VM-vp). Mais un tel procd et comport quelques risques de confusion avec l'identification des dialectes quise trouvent galement indi.qus entre parenthses par des abrviations; par ailleurs, tels verbes qui n'existent qu' la voix active dans certains parlers, n'admettent que la moyenne ou la passive dans d'autres.

La liste des mots peuls est donne en caractres gras. Dans la plupart des cas, les nominaux se prsentent sous deux formes spares par une petite barre oblique; gauche de la barre se trouve la forme du singulier et, sa droite, celle du pluriel. Entre parenthses, figurent les initiales des dialectes qui acceptent le signifiant tel qu'il est indiqu. Il importe de noter que A signifie damwa, D Dahomey, FJ Fota-Dialon, FT Fota-Tro, G Gomb, GAMB. Gambie, K Kano, M Mcina, N Niger (Est & Ouest), NE Niger-est, NO Niger-ouest, s Sok-koto et V Haute-Volta.

Aprs les initiales des dialectes figurent, en italique, la traduction du mot peul en franais et, aprs un point-virgule, sa traduction en anglais.

Sous la ligne des versions franaise et anglaise sont men-tionnes, en romain, les variantes dialectales et quelques synonymes courants.

Il arrive qu'on n'explique pas immdiatement un terme et qu'on se contente de le renvoyer, par un cj., un autre terme transcrit en gras.

10

Lorsqu'un mot traduit ne porte aucune initiale d'identifica-tion dialectale, il est gnralement compris et utilis, dans tous les dialectes prcits, sous la forme reproduite dans cet ouvrage.

Il est minemment souhaitable que ce dictionnaire pra-tique, prpar et dit grce l'aide de l'Unesco, reoive l'accueil enthousiaste des utilisateurs et des chercheurs de tous les dialectes et de tous les pays afin qu'ils puissent, leur tour et leur niveau, le vrifier, le rectifier, l'enrichir et le pr-ciser; ce qui contribuera l'laboration du dictionnaire gnral de la langue peule dont la ralisation parat aujour-d'hui s'imposer aprs l'aboutissement de cette premire tape.

INTRODUCTION

In September, 1962, an international conference for Africa and Asia, held in Prague under the patronage of the Inter-national Academic Union and of Unesco, recommended the preparation of a Fulani-French-English trilingual dictionary.

A resolution of the Fifth Congress of West African Languages which met at the University of Accra in April, 1965, integrated the scheme into a wide programme of fundamental research, worked out by the Committee of Fulani Studies, newly constituted by the West African Linguistic Society.

Later, several African countries and research centres expressed an interest in the Fulani project and asked that the programme of the commttee be extended to Hawsa, SO!Jay, Tamasheq, Bambara and Kanuri. The result was that Unesco convened in March, 1966, in Bamako, a meeting of a group of experts for the unification of the transcription of national languages.

For the immediate preparation of the teaching material essential for national literacy campaigns in the languages under consideration at Bamako, the conference made a number of proposaIs. These concerned, first of aIl, the prepa-

13

ration of practical dictionaries, elernentary grarnrnars and reading manuals. Thus, at the request of sorne of the rnernber African states-Cameroun, Guinea, Mali, Niger and Nigeria -Unesco sponsored the compilation of this trilingual dictio-nary aimed at establishing the spelling of common words and assembling the fundamental elernents of the various Fulfulde dialects.

The preparation of the dictionary was undertaken by Professor David W. Arnott, professor of West African Languages of the University of London's School of Oriental and African Studies. He assembled a basic list of about 5,000 words originating mainly from the Fulfulde dialect spoken in the Gombe area of Nigeria, but also based rnargin-ally on the "Eastern group" (Adarnawa, Sokkoto, Kano, Eastern Niger) and on the "Western group" (Futa-Jalon, Futa-Toro, Masina, Upper Volta and Western Niger). In the past, the author had stayed in all these areas. The work was then evaluated by the group of experts on the development of didactic material for literacy in Africa in April, 1967, at Unesco headquarters in Paris.- The committee for the prepara-tion of dictionaries recommended that the manuscript be published after revision of the French version and after evaluation of its contents in Niger on the frontier of the eastern and western dialect groups-incidentally-one of the most interesting are as for the study of dialect variations.

The French version of the English translation of the Fulfulde words was revised and corrected by Prof essor Pierre-Francis Lacroix of the cole nationale des Langues orientales vivantes in Paris.

In 1967, Unesco comrnissioned two Fulani consultants, Mr. Eldridge Moharnadou of the Yaounde Federal Linguistic and Cultural Centre and rnyself to carry out the work of evaluation in Niger. Mr. Moharnadou carried out bis verifi-cations in localities of eastern Niger while l worked on the "isoglosses" of western area of the country.

On the completion of these investigations, the work was submitted of the second regional linguistic training

14

Seminar, he Id in Niamey in August, 1968, for final revision, which was done with the assistance of the participants and of the Fulani consultant in charge of the seminar.

I was entrusted, by Unesco, with the final editing and preparation of the work for publication-a task I was only able to carry out thanks to the collaboration of a team com-posed of: Miss Jolle Laurent, a graduate of the cole nationale des Langues orientales vivantes, who was writing a thesis on "Fulani Tales"; Mrs. Marie-Jos Mencacci, who holds a post-graduate Diploma in English Studies; and Mr. Geoffrey VarIey, an English journalist on the staff of the Nouvelle agence de presse (N .A.P.).

The resulting Practical Dictionary is a basic glossary aimed at promoting literacy; this me ans that it is not an exhaustive list of words used, even frequently, in the main dialects in economic and professional activities. It is an elementary dictionary.

It is a follow up of the syllabaryl and of the Fulfulde primer2 It thus offers in its turn, a standardized spelling transcending political boundaries and aims at facilitating mutual under-standing among the linguistic communities and geographical areas which use Fulfulde as a language of communication. The dictionary will thus serve to indicate and fix the correct spelling of common words in line with the transcription recommended by the Bamako conference and according to the transcription practises proposed by the Fulfulde committee which sat at that conference.

I t did not seem necessary to give a complete list of aIl the meanings and nuances of each word in the glossary. This will be the function of the Cultural Fulfulde Dictionary, plans for which were made at Prague and at Accra.

Order of words in the dictionary is as foIlows: a, e, i, 0, u for the words which begin with the glottal stop; and b, ,

1. Janngenfulfulde l, Prsence africaine, Paris, 1969. 2. Janngenfulfulde II, C.R.D.T.O., Niamey, 1970.

mb, c, d, ri, nd, J, g, ng, h, j, nj, k, l, m, n, 1j, ny, p, q, f, S, t, w, x,y,Y', z for those which begin with consonants.

The text gives the spelling of verb stems with the sub-junctive suffixes-a if the verb is active (AV),-oO if it is middle (MY) and-aa ifit is passive (pv). It would have been preferable, to avoid repetition, to indicate in brackets the usual abbreviations after each verb stem (AV-MV-PV). But there would have been a risk of confusion over the identifica-tion of the dialects which are aIso indicated by abbreviations. In addition, some verbs which exist only in the active voice in certain dialects, are found only in the middle or passive voices in others.

The list of Fulfulde words is given in thick type. In most cases the nominaIs are presented under two forms separated by an oblique stroke; the word on the left of the stroke indicates the singular form, and that on the right the plural. The abbreviations of the dialects which accept the word as indicated then follow in brackets.

The abbreviations are as follows: A Adamawa, D Dahomey, FJ Futa-Jalon, FI' Futa-Toro,

G Gombe, GAMB. Gambia, K Kano, M Masina, N Niger (East & West), NE Eastern NIger, NO Western Niger, s Sokkoto, v Upper Volta.

After the initiais of the dialects will be found, in italics, the French translations of the Fulfulde words; the English translations follow in italics after a semi-colon.

Beneath the French and English translations, will be found, in roman characters, dialect variants and a few common synonyms.

It sometimes happens that a term is not explained imme-diately, but refferred, by a cj., to another term transcribed in thick type.

When a word is found with a translation but no abbrevia-tion indicating the dialect, this means that it is generally understood and used in aIl the above dialects in the form in which it is found in this dictionary.

It is to be hoped that the Practical Dictionary, prepared

16

and published thanks to Unesco assistance, receives an enthu-siastic welcome from its users and from linguistic researchers in aIl countries so that they may in their turn and at their level verify it, correct it, enrich it and comment on it. AlI this would contribute to the General Fulani Dictionary whose preparation will follow the Practical Dictionary.
