Abstract:
In this paper I present eighteen silly and sometimes even nonsensical children’s verses recorded in the Kulisusu area of Buton Island, Southeast Sulawesi, Indonesia, including a few that are primarily in Malay/Indonesian. Some verses are performed with accompanying actions, and from this perspective can be considered a kind of play. Accompanying sound files are embedded in the document.
