This is a series of training sessions made by the Seregu subcommittee of the Nen language committee, under Nick Evans' supervision. The Seregu subcommittee comprises Goi Dibod, Mary Dibod, Zerus Kaeko; Doreen Wenembu is also a member but was absent on 20140926 and was replaced by Songa Dibod and his wife Srgo. Jimmy Nébni was also present (also joined for part of it by Daniel Gubae). The files are from training sessions where each was learning how to operate the recording equipment and carry out the interviews. The videos are very chaotic and only included because there is some relevant background conversation and joking. The practice interviews were only recorded on the Zoom sound recorder. The most interesting pair are those between Goi and his sister-in-law Srgo. When Goi interviews Srgo he uses Nen and she answers in Idi (first version), then there is a second version, a rerun, where she answers in Nen. Then the tables are turned and she asks him questions in Idi and he responds in Nen. N.B. The audio recordings and video recordings do not align.
