README FILE FOR “Mande Jalkunan audio files“

Background:

These audio files are recordings of people speaking the Jalkunan language. Jalkunan is a Mande language spoken in the village cluster of Blédougou near Sindou in southwestern Burkina Faso.

A reference grammar of Jalkunan by Jeffrey Heath was published electronically in 2017. It is available online at:
