General comments: The basic wordlist (about 1100 items, both English/Indonesian, devised by me) was collected in 1972 by Ms. Rina Intan, then a student at IKIP-Malang, Java, in conjunction with course-work in my Comparative MP seminar. Her informants were......., also students in the area. Ms. Intan was definitely a superior student, interested in, and with a good grasp of, general linguistics, and very fluent English; consequently I feel she would likely have understood any ambiguities in either the English or my Indonesian glosses, enabling her, I am sure, to elicit a quite accurate wordlist. Indeed, that was confirmed to me when I later got a copy of Middelkoop (1950), and found that both vocabularies matched to a very high degree. The only major differences were (1) her possible occasional mis-hearing of final -k versus glottal stop; and (2) her transcription of /b/, which she wrote with a fricative symbol ("barred-b") in almost every case. Middelkoop does not mention such a pronunciation, though it might well occur, in view of the -b off-glide after /u/ that he mentions (similar to his "dj" off-glide after /i/, which Ms. Intan writes with -j- and -z). Comparison of the two also suggests that Ms. Intan sometimes had difficulty distinguishing open vs. close è/e and ò/o-- she used the IPA symbols "epsilon" and "reversed-c", so it is not a question of omitting diacritics-- as her forms do not always match Middelkoop’s; but one notes some variation in their occurrence in Middelkoop as well. Perhaps there are dialectal differences, too, but the difficulty is hardly surprising, since these vowels take part in some rather complicated morphophonemic processes-- see Steinhauer (1996) for a recent discussion.
This listing includes not only Ms. Intan’s material, but also most forms and variants cited in Middelkoop (marked M.). In addition, Jonker’s Rotinese dictionary has "Timorese" and other local cognates at many entries, and they are included here (marked J.), along with his cognates. His spellings sometimes differ, but most of his items seem relevant, even if a few seem a bit...shall we say, off-base.

B
Note: In almost all cases, Ms. Intan indicates a fricative pronunciation, using "b with crossbar"; M says nothing about such a pronunciation, so this must be a dialectal or even idiolectal feature. M. does, however, mention a "transitional glide" after u, which he writes "b". The few cases where Intan indicates a "real" b (i.e. without crossbar) will be noted-- but since a real contrast seems unlikely, I attribute her occasional "b"s to mishearing, or slips of the pen.
