Durorp-English Dictionary is probably the first attempt at
compiling a comprehensive Dictionary of Durorp, the language of the
people of Korup. It is a bilingual Dictionary aimed at stimulating
literary interests in the study and development of Durorp as a
linguistic entity in particular and promotion of Durorp literature
in general. Durorp is an interesting and linguistically distinct
semi-Bantu or Bantoid language spoken by a minority group of people
known as Bororp or people of the Kororp ethnic group. A part of
this ethnic group inhabits the Southwestern part of Cameroon while
the other occupies the Southeastern tip of Nigeria. A minority
group, Kororp has continued to suffer not only cultural and
socio-economic shrinkage but also linguistic marginalisation
characterised by an obvious erosion of some key elements of the
language. Like any other language, however, Durorp has borrowings
from languages such as Efik, Ejagham, and even English. This
Dictionary has introduced quite a number of new but understandable
words.
