Hi Jefff, many thanks for these links...after mpg's kind post, I had stumbled on the longer BBC recording and was just ready to post the link for that one so others could enjoy as well. I listened to Dennis Potter (though was not able to find his recording "Who Killed the Bears?"). I've also listed to the short Brian Powell recording. Keeping in mind that these are modern speakers of Vurrest dialect, I still have to tilt my head just right to catch the meaning!

As I mentioned in one of the posts above, I'll be traveling to the Forest in May with my mom, aunt, and cousin, and we are so excited! Our ancestors will be strongly in our hearts and our imaginations will be working overtime, for sure. In the meantime, these recordings will give us a nice flavor of the area and we will have fun working through them. Thank you again!

Terri
