Krauss's (2005) tone wordlist tables in IPA
The Krauss list are the words for the tonal contrasts in the seven tables at the end of the Krauss (2005) paper (Athabaskan tone) on the development of tone in the Dene languages.
The IPA (International Phonetic Alphabet) is an orthography used to represent all possible sound phonemes in all languages providing a world-wide notational standard; it is supported by the International Phonetic Association.
The Dene languages use several different orthographies, including syllabics. The IPA uses a single common symbol for each sound phoneme. The Krauss list is not written in the IPA nor is it consistent with all Dene orthographies or to those who are not familiar with the Dene orthographies. The Krauss list was transcribed into the standard IPA by Jared O'Loughlin at the University of Rochester in 2012. This data in an excel spreadsheet (.xlsx) is downloadable here.
The Toy Game
A conversation game between two speakers who can't see each other; the goal is to cooperate to arrange small objects and toys on a surface in the same order as the other speaker's. This task induces natural conversation, questions and answers and comments and jokes, directions, all sorts of language discourse centered around a goal and a small number of items. It's very easy to set up with objects at hand. A description of the Toy Game is found here
