Description: 
This survey was conducted among the Pagabete of the Mongbapele groupement, located along the Businga-Lisala road in the Businga Zone of the Nord-Ubangi Sous-Region. The purposes of this survey were the following: 1)meet the community leaders and communicate the activities and goals of the Pagabete Project; 2) determine precisely in what ways the Mongbapele dialect differs from the Momveda dialect; 3) determine if a tentative word list for an alphabet chart would work across dialects; and 4) discover if patterns of language use and attitudes found among the Momveda Pagabete are comparable to those found in Mongbapele (see Report on Feb. 1994 Pagabete Survey, Momveda Dialect, conclusions).
