The Kuku Yalanji Corpus — Operator's Guide & Handoff Manual
A complete working manual for the linguist-model who continues this corpus. Updated 2026-07-10 at 20,047 / 20,000 verified sentences (Rules 1-357). The requirement-by-requirement milestone completion audit has passed; §14 records the frozen research baseline and its qualifications. Read this once, all the way through, before changing the corpus.
0. What you are, and what you are making
You are the author of a gold-standard parallel corpus of English ↔︎ Kuku Yalanji (gvn) sentences, built to train a translation model for MobTranslate. The target is 20,000 verified sentences. Every sentence is composed by your own linguistic inference, in the main loop — never by a generator script, never by another model, never by a subagent. You are, for this work, a rigorous descriptive linguist, a careful philologist, an honest etymologist, and a patient editor, all at once. The quality bar is publishable field-linguistics, not "good enough for training data." Hold that bar.
You are not inventing a language. Kuku Yalanji is a real, living Australian language of the rainforest and coast between Mossman and the Bloomfield River in Far North Queensland. It has a superb reference grammar (Elisabeth Patz, A Grammar of the Kuku Yalanji Language of North Queensland, Pacific Linguistics 2002) and a substantial dictionary. Your entire job is to write true, natural, well-formed Kuku Yalanji sentences that are faithful to those two sources, and to gloss them accurately. When you are unsure whether a word or construction is real, the answer is always the same: go and look. Grep the dictionary. Grep the grammar. If it is not there, you may not use it.
The single deepest lesson of this whole project, learned the hard way over a hundred-plus batches, is this:
A phonotactically legal Kuku Yalanji word that you invented is invisible to every mechanical check. The only thing standing between the corpus and a slow accumulation of plausible-sounding fiction is your discipline of grepping every content word, every time, before you use it. This is called phantom-lexeme discipline, and it is the first commandment. There is no shortcut, no cache, no "I'm sure I've seen this." Look it up.
1. The philosophy (read this so the rules make sense)
A few principles animate everything below. If you understand why, you will make good decisions in the many situations no rule covers.
Faithfulness over fluency-theatre. A shorter, plainer sentence that is provably correct beats a long, elegant one with a single invented word. Every word must be attested; every gloss must be honest. If the natural Kuku Yalanji uses a near-synonym rather than the exact English word, then change the English to match what the Kuku actually says, and note it — never bend the Kuku to fit the English.
Elder-Patz style. The corpus is written in two registered layers at once:
- the elder surface (
kukufield): how a fluent elder would actually say it, with solid case-joined words and the real surface phonology (bamangka,kadan,binalman); - the Patz analysis (
analysisfield): a full hyphenated morpheme segmentation, then|, then a word-by-word gloss — the way a descriptive linguist writes it (bama-ngka,kada-ny,binal-ma-ny | person-ERG:pt come-PAST know-INCHO-PAST). The two layers describe the same utterance from two angles. They must never drift apart (see §7, the desync bug).
- the elder surface (
Substance. Sentences are long, multi-clause micro-narratives — 2–4 clauses, subordination, real content, averaging well over ten Kuku words per row (recent batches run ~14–16). Never pad with fragments; never write "The dog is big." Write the kind of sentence an old person actually says: "The father went out to hunt the wallaby before first light, and the mother stayed close by the camp with the small children." This gives the model rich syntax to learn and makes the corpus read like a genuine text collection.
Never lose data (invariant I3). The corpus is append-and-supersede, never destructive-overwrite. Before you edit any accepted row, you write a
revisionsrow capturing the old and new values, with a reason. You never blind-replace across the corpus; corrections to already-accepted rows are their own explicit, logged sweeps.The tools are part of the corpus. When you discover a new systematic error class, you fix the lint in the same session so it can never recur silently. The living books (cheatsheet + errata) are law that accumulates: what you learn in batch 123 protects batch 200.
Cadence. Batches alternate construction ↔︎ lexical. A construction batch teaches a piece of grammar (the purposive, the antipassive, questions, subordinate clauses). A lexical batch fills a semantic field (birds, kinship, reptiles, fire & cooking). Alternating keeps the corpus balanced between structure and vocabulary.
2. The absolute rules (violate none of these)
These are non-negotiable. Most were written in blood (a real bug that cost real rework).
- Grep every content word in BOTH
dictionary.yamlANDgrammar.mdat authoring time. Not "most." Not "the ones I'm unsure about." Every noun, verb, adjective, particle. A word is real only if you have just seen it in one of those two files. (§4 shows the exact commands.) - Never whitelist a lint flag without grepping first.
If the lint flags a word, do not silence it — look it up. The lint is
usually right. (The canonical scar: someone whitelisted
jubunyas 'star'; the real word isdawar.) - Author by your own inference, in the main loop. No scripts that generate sentences, no calls to other models, no subagents. The Python scripts you write only bank and close — they never compose Kuku Yalanji.
- Elder-Patz two-layer style, every row (§5, §6).
- I3-safe edits to accepted rows: a
revisionsrow first, exact-substring asserts, never a blind global replace (§8). - Close every batch with the five-lens review before
starting the next. Never leave rows stuck in
under_review. "Banked" is not "done"; "done" is accepted, counted, and lint-green. - Lint must be GREEN over the WHOLE corpus before you close a batch.
- Update the living books (cheatsheet + errata) whenever new law is established, and the project memory when standing law changes.
- The Bible parallel text is REFERENCE-ONLY — you may
consult
..._ebible_parallel_v0.1.0/all.jsonlto check whether a word/sense is attested, but you never use its wording or style as training data. The corpus voice is the elders' everyday voice, not scripture. - Scope is purely linguistic. You are documenting a language. Do not stray into other domains.

4. Phantom-lexeme discipline — the heart of the whole method
This is the section to internalise. Everything else is mechanics; this is the craft.
4.1 The grep ritual
Before you use a word, resolve it. The dictionary is a YAML list of
- word: X entries each followed by a gloss:
line (and often more). Two lookups:
By headword (do you know the word, want the gloss?):
grep -A5 "^- word: baykal$" dictionary.yaml | grep -m1 gloss
By gloss (you know the meaning, want the word?):
# find the line, then walk back up to the nearest headword:
r=$(grep -niE "gloss: bite$" dictionary.yaml | head -1)
ln=$(echo "$r" | cut -d: -f1)
sed -n "1,${ln}p" dictionary.yaml | grep "^- word:" | tail -1
In the grammar (for particles, clitics, constructions, and words the dictionary lacks):
grep -n "\bkaki\b" grammar.md # is 'kaki' attested? in what sense?
A word counts as attested if it is a headword in
dictionary.yaml or appears (in the right
sense) in grammar.md. Some function words (particles, the
temporal proclitic wawu-, the interrogatives' derived
cases) live only in the grammar — that's fine, the grammar is an
authority too.
4.2 The four species of phantom (know them so you catch yourself)
- The invented root. You need a word for "shaft" or
"canoe" or "patient", reach for a plausible shape (
dungun,walba,kangarr), and it simply does not exist. Fix: grep first; if absent, use an attested near-word or reword the English. - The wrong-sense word. A real word, wrong meaning.
janganis 'grasshopper', not 'way';kudamunduis 'behind', not 'slow';yinkaris 'dilly bag', not 'work';kangais 'chase', not 'pass';jibais 'liver', not the seat of 'happy'. These are the most dangerous because the word is in the dictionary — the lint sees a legal word and stays silent. Only your grep of the gloss catches these. - The English-shaped function word. English adverbs
and temporals — 'truly', 'today', 'tomorrow', 'really', 'half', 'wide' —
very often have no one-word Kuku Yalanji equivalent
(
nyawa,jinbi,jibin,julmbu,wananwere all invented this way). Prefer an attested particle, an aspect suffix,niji'now', or simply omit the intensifier. - The compound on a wrong root. You build a
transparent compound and it means something absurd.
janji-karilooks like 'without-apart' butjanjiis 'bathe', so it means 'without bathing'. Fix: grep each element of a compound too.
4.3 The phantom denylist in the bank scan
The pre-bank scan (in every bank_NNN.py, see §5) carries
a growing denylist of known phantoms and wrong-sense words.
When you rule a word out, add it to that list so a
future batch can't slip it through. When a denylisted word turns out to
be legitimately attested in a correct sense (this happens —
kulur 'three', kaki 'if', wulngku
'song' were over-denylisted), verify it in dict+grammar and graduate
it off the list, noting the ruling in the errata. The denylist
guards senses, not spellings — a word can be both banned in one
sense and used in another.
4.4 When there is genuinely no word
In order of preference:
- an attested near-synonym (and adjust the English gloss to match);
- a transparent compound of attested morphemes
(
baka-juku'dig-stick' = digging stick;binal-bungal'know-make' = teach) — but grep each element; - a circumlocution (say it in a few attested words);
- reword the English so the sentence no longer needs the missing concept.
Never mint an opaque root. Ever.
5. The batch loop, step by step
One batch ≈ 50 rows. The rhythm is: read the living books → pick the theme → research the vocab/construction → AUTHOR → BANK → LINT → REVIEW (five lenses) → CLOSE → update the living books.
5.1 Read first
Open the newest rules in the cheatsheet and the errata watchlist. They are law. In particular, re-read the most recent 2–3 rules and the whole errata phantom table before authoring — you are about to reuse a lot of it.
5.2 Pick the theme (cadence)
Alternate construction <-> lexical. Look at what the last batch was and swing the other way. To see coverage, skim the cheatsheet's rule titles and the batch notes.
As of Rule 113, constructions covered include:
ergative/absolutive basics, the pronoun paradigm (Rule 39), kinship
morphology, the purposive (Rule 42), comparison, reflexive/reciprocal,
catenatives, conditionals/hypotheticals (Rule 74), complementation (Rule
76), the -nya subordinate clause in four functions (Rule
78), questions/interrogatives (Rule 80), the antipassive (Rule 82),

comitative case alternations (Rule 110), full
clause-combining/discourse-relation frames with kari,
yamba, kaki, kunka,
nganganjirrka, balu, and nguba

99), health/sickness/injury/soreness/healing/recovery (Rule 101),
physical properties/material qualities (Rule 103), human qualities,
ability, and character/state descriptors (Rule 105), camp objects,
containers, household/craft implements, bark/coolamon containers,

fine-grained plant parts, tree parts, fruits, yams, seeds, bark, fibre,
grass, resin, and named tree lexicon (Rule 109), discourse particles,
interjections, answer words, and small pragmatic/function-word lexicon
(Rule 111), and practical contingency vocabulary for condition/reason
clauses: weather, cold, fire, health, hunger, animal risk,
road/water/camp situations, containers/tools, and preparation verbs
(Rule 113), plus event nouns, sound/action nouns, weather nouns, and
temporal-reference lexicon for sequencing (Rule 115). Recent lexical
passes also added weather/sky reference (Rule 153), plant-resource
reference (Rule 155), human/kin reference heads (Rule 157), and
extended-kin reference heads (Rule 159), with the Rule 157 set
consolidated in deictic-supported perception frames (Rule 158), the Rule
159 extended-kin set consolidated in deictic-supported perception frames
(Rule 160), and literal body-part reference heads reactivated in
deictic-supported perception frames (Rule 161) and consolidated with
swapped deictic support distribution (Rule 162). Rule 163 added a
tightly bounded plant/tree reference field: buyukal,
dalkan, dari, dibul,
dilbal, dili, jabarr,
jakari, jama, and jilbar, with
all use/event semantics closed. Rule 164 consolidated that same
plant/tree set by rotating yaluy/yinyay
support across present and past perception frames while keeping every
target bare and every use/event trap closed. Rule 165 added a second
tightly bounded flora reference field: babajaka,
balmbalka, baway, bijin,
dalban, dingki, dulmbil,
duwar, kalal, and kumul, with
buyku excluded for prior near-duplicate pressure and
bijan excluded for homograph risk. Rule 166 consolidated
the same Rule 165 flora set by rotating yinyay and
yaluy support across bare deictic, present perception, and
past perception frames while keeping every target bare and every
food/use/material/place/homograph trap closed. Rule 167 added a third
tightly bounded flora-reference field: jina-jina,
jarrangkal, julbin, kunjarri,
kurruy, malurri, mawar,
maya, wangay, and yawarr, while
excluding dakumbar, dukal,
jinjay, jalnji, and ngakun for
dialect, fruit/food, poison/nut/gum/spear, or seasonal-signal
complications. Rule 168 consolidated the same Rule 167 flora field by
rotating yinyay and yaluy support across bare
deictic, present perception, and past perception frames while keeping
every target bare and every fruit/food/material/place/use trap closed.
Rule 169 added a tightly bounded insect-reference field:
biray, kamay, manukurru,
mindil, murrmun, murrumun,
muyu-muyu, wurrarr-wurrarr,
yijil-yijin, and yinja-yinja, while rejecting
prior-used, polysemous, edible, honey, medicine, seasonal, and
event-heavy insect entries. Rule 170 consolidated the same insect field
by rotating yinyay and yaluy support across
bare deictic, present perception, and past perception frames while
keeping every target bare and every
bite/sting/honey/nest/medicine/season/event trap closed. Rule 171 added
a tightly bounded shellfish/crustacean-domain reference field:
balungkul, juwarru, marakal,
marku, marubu, munji,
ngulumuku, wukuju, wuybur, and
yulba; jirrum was retired after lint because
final -m violates the current corpus phonotactic guard.
Rule 172 consolidated the same shellfish set by rotating
yinyay and yaluy support across bare deictic,
present perception, and past perception frames while keeping every
target bare and every food/bait/catch/cook/habitat/sting/use/event trap
closed. Rule 173 added a tightly bounded bird-reference field:
barbarr, bayil-bayil, biluwarra,
binjul-binjul, dijarr-dijin,
kurburrubun, kurkumbay, kurungka,
munwingkul, and yindili, with rejected
candidate, flight, song, call, warning, totem/moiety, sacred-bird,
story-site, nest, egg, feather, food, hunting, catching, storm, place,
wood, secondary-sense, target-case, target-compound, possession, and
event traps closed. Rule 174 consolidated the same bird field by
rotating yinyay and yaluy support across bare
deictic, present perception, and past perception frames while keeping
every target bare and every bird-behavior/use/event trap closed. Rule
175 added a tightly bounded reptile-reference field:
banamu, binju, dukul-mukul,
jirabay, junbirr, kabuljaka,
kulmba-kulmba, kurriyala,
ngawurr-ngawun, and ngumbul, with
wrong-marriage, cooking, poisonous, fish/grunter, belt/source,
running-from, story, story-site, legend, mythological-person, food,
edible, eating, hunting, catching, chase, firestick, eye/fighter, place,
river, egg, body-part, target-case, target-compound, possession, and
event traps closed. Cadence now says construction for Rule 176.
Rule 176 consolidated the same reptile set by rotating
yinyay and yaluy support across bare deictic,
present perception, and past perception frames while keeping every
target bare and every reptile-use/story/poison/source/body-part trap
closed. Rule 177 added a tightly bounded native mammal-reference field:
bimbarrbay, durrkin, jibul,
kirbaji, jumar, murrumu,
nyarrkali, wambiji, waykal, and
yalmburrajaka, with dog/pig/horse/cat-loan,
introduced-animal, place/story/cave, iron/clothing/source-material,
food, hunting, catching, biting, killing, habitat/ecology, body-part,
target-case, target-compound, possession, plural-derivation, and event
traps closed. Rule 178 consolidated the same mammal set by rotating
yinyay and yaluy support across bare deictic,
present perception, and past perception frames while keeping every
target bare and every mammal dog-loan, place-story, habitat, use, and
event trap closed. Rule 179 added a tightly bounded fish/ray-reference
field: badibu, bilaji, bunjulu,
jilngu, karrulji, kilkirr,
midir, ngarmu, yalnganji, and
yubuji, with nonselected fish heads, catching, netting,
hook/line, spearing, eating, cooking, food, taboo, storm/thunder, story,
place, water/river/sea/habitat, fish body-part, target-case,
target-compound, possession, and event traps closed. Cadence now says
construction for Rule 180.
5.3 Research
For a construction batch: find the section in
grammar.md (grep the section number and read the body — the
example sentences are gold; copy their morphology exactly).
Extract the rule, the suffix forms, the allomorphy, and 3–4 real
examples with their glosses.
For a lexical batch: harvest the field from
dictionary.yaml by gloss (§4.1), resolving each headword.
Then cross-check anything you'll actually use against the grammar.
Assemble a little inventory before you write.
5.4 Author (this is the real work)
Write ~50 sentences by hand, in four thematic sections of ~12–13 each. For every sentence:
- decide the meaning (a real, substantive, multi-clause thing an elder would say);
- build the Kuku with only grepped words, applying the elder-surface laws (§6);
- write the Patz analysis (segmentation
|gloss); - keep the two fields token-aligned.
Write them straight into the R = [ ... ] list of a
bank_NNN.py file as 9-tuples:
(seq, english, kuku, analysis, frame, tier, words_used, evidence, confidence)
where frame is 'construction' or
'lexical', tier is an integer (3 is the
working default), words_used is a JSON list of the key
headwords, evidence is a short note on what the row
teaches, confidence a float ~0.81–0.85.
Recent scripts may use a 10-tuple with explicit
loans_used between words_used and
evidence; do that when a row contains a loan such as
Toyota or bulawu. The invariant is that the
sentence content is hand-authored, while the script only stores the
already-written row.
5.5 Bank
The bank_NNN.py script (a) deletes any prior rows of
this batch (idempotent re-run), (b) inserts the batch, (c) runs a
pre-bank scan over every row, and (d) only if the scan
is clean, inserts the rows as status='under_review'. The
scan is your first line of defence — it checks EN
capitalisation/punctuation, non-ASCII, the phantom denylist, LOC
allomorphy
(-nga/-ba/-a/-mba/-ngu),
single-r vs rr, y-final LOC,
word-final -iy, the illegal purposive -l-ka,
and the elder-surface past -ny→-n.
Read the scan template in an existing bank file and reuse it
verbatim, extending the denylist. Bank, and note the avg
words/row it prints. Most batches should be substantive and long; a
high-control construction batch may be shorter when exact Patz examples
are the right evidence.
5.6 The mandatory post-bank DB grep
After banking, grep the DB (both kuku AND
analysis) for every word you corrected during
authoring. This catches the desync bug (§7) — cases where you
fixed the kuku but not the analysis
segmentation, or vice versa. A tiny script:
import sqlite3; db=sqlite3.connect('synthetic.db')
bid=db.execute("SELECT id FROM batches WHERE label='batch-NNN'").fetchone()[0]
bad=['<every phantom/wrong word you touched this batch>']
for seq,ku,an in db.execute("SELECT seq,kuku,analysis FROM sentences WHERE batch_id=?",(bid,)):
for t in bad:
if t in ' '+ku+' ' or t in ' '+an+' ': print(seq,t)It must print nothing.
5.7 Lint to GREEN
python3 lint_corpus.py — must end
0 issues flagged over the whole corpus. Fix every flag
(they are almost always real: elder-surface past, LOC allomorphy, a
phantom the scan's denylist didn't yet have, a /h/ from a
fake accusative). If you discover a genuinely new systematic
error class, add a rule/denylist entry to lint_corpus.py in
the same session.
5.8 Review — five lenses, synchronous, you judge every sentence
Insert 5 × N reviews rows (one per lens per sentence),
reviewer 'claude-main-sync'. The five lenses:
- morphology — is every affix right (case, tense, the elder surface)?
- lexicon — is every content word attested in the right sense?
- syntax — is the clause structure well-formed (word order, subordination, the construction being taught)?
- fidelity — does the English faithfully back-translate the Kuku (not more, not less)?
- register — does it sound like a real elder,
substantive and natural? Attach lens-notes to the rows that illustrate
the batch's teaching points. Then
UPDATE ... SET status='accepted', write thebatches.notesclose summary, and insert 4–5lessonsrows (category + lesson + guide_change). Read back the counts to verify.
5.9 Close & living books
- Cheatsheet: append a new numbered
## Rule N — <title>with the construction/field, its morphology, and worked examples from the batch. - Errata: append a
### Batch-NNNsection listing verified words, phantom rulings, and any watchlist updates. - Process log: write or update
synthetic/claude-synthetic-v1-2026-07-02/process_logs/batch-NNN-<theme>-process.mdwith the source pass, authoring decisions, rejected risks, lint/review counts, export status, and live-doc verification. The DB notes are not enough; keep an external audit trail too. - Process events: also record major source checks,
correction decisions, command outputs, close evidence, and live-doc
verification in
process_eventsviabatch_scripts/process_ledger.py. This started at Batch 141 so process history is queryable across future batches. - Lexemes: upsert each newly-verified headword into
the
lexemestable (statusverified, withcorpus_freq). - Memory: if standing law changed, update the project memory file.
Then, and only then, start the next batch.
6.
Elder-surface laws (the phonology you apply as you write the
kuku field)
These are the rules that turn a morpheme string into how an elder actually says it. The lint enforces them; internalise them so you write them right the first time.
- Past tense
-ny→-non the elder surface. Patz writeskada-ny(come-PAST); the elder surface iskadan. In thekukufield, a past-tense verb ends in-n, not-ny. Exceptions that keep-ny: the subordinator-nya(and-nyji,-nyjiku,-nyaku), and lexical nouns that simply end in-ny(e.g.nyabil… no; e.g.jalany? — no, that was a phantom; a real one: word-final-nyon a noun is fine, it's only verbal past that must reduce). - Word-final
-iydrops they:warri-y→warri. kada→kadayfor the nonpast (come); barekadais wrong — it's eitherkaday(nonpast) orkada-n(past).- Nonpast
-ystays:dunga-y'goes/going'. - LOCATIVE allomorphy (the single most common lint
flag), by the stem's final segment:
- final
u→-ngu(jukar→ no;bubu→bubu-ba? — careful: this is by final vowel/consonant;u-final vowel stems take-ngu); - final
a/i→-nga(vowel) or per the consonant rules below; - single
-r→-a(jukar→jukar-a,wungar→wungar-a; corpus norm ~70:2 over-ba); -rr→-ba;- final
-l/-n→-ba(dumbul→dumbul-ba); - final
-y→-mba(kalbay→kalbay-mba,yalbay→yalbay-mba). (Legacy note: older accepted rows have a-ba/-mbamix fory-final stems (kalbay-ba~55,yalbay-ba~24). The scan enforces-mbafor new rows; the legacy mix is a deferred reconciliation-sweep item on the watchlist. Don't reintroduce-baony-final stems.)
- final
- Phonotactics (the lint's onset/coda checks):
- No
/p/, no/h/, no/g/onset (onlyng). A stray/h/almost always means you invented a fake accusative-nha— see below. - No
-mcoda (words don't end inm):jurriyannotjurriyam. l,r,rrcannot begin a native word.- Legal onsets:
b d j k m n w y ng ny.
- No
- ⚠️ There is NO accusative case on common nouns. The
object of a transitive verb, and the addressee of
balka'tell', is absolutive (bare) for a common noun. Do not write-nha(it is a fake accusative AND smuggles in an illegal/h/). This error has relapsed three times; the lint's/h/check is the backstop, but write it right: common-noun object = bare;balkaaddressee = dative-nka. Pronouns do have a true accusative (Rule 39):nganya'me',yununy'you',nyunguny'him', and the non-singular pronouns (ngana,jana,bula) are the bare NOM base in every core position.
7. The Patz analysis field (how to gloss)
Format:
<hyphenated morpheme segmentation> | <word-by-word gloss>.
Example:
kuku: Mukul-dingkarangka kadar dama-l-dama-nya nyaji-l-nyaji-ny.
analysis: mukul-dingkar-angka kadar dama-l-dama-nya nyaji-l-nyaji-ny | old-man-ERG:pt wallaby spear-l-REDUP-SUB watch-l-REDUP-PAST
Conventions, drawn from Patz and used consistently across the corpus:
- Case/other gloss tags:
ERG:pt(ergative, "potent"),ABS,DAT,LOC,ABL,COMIT,POSS,INST,PERL(perlative 'through'),PRIV(privative-kari'without'),SUB(subordinator-nya),PURP(purposive-nkV),INCHO(-ma-become),CAUS(-bungal/-malmake),REDUP,KPL(kinship plural-karra),IRR(irrealis-nyaku),PRECAUT(-nyji'lest'),TEMP4(the procliticwawu-'after'). - The segmentation mirrors the elder surface but
shows morpheme boundaries with hyphens (
bama-ngka,kada-ny). A subtlety the corpus settled on: for past tense the segmentation may show-ny(Patz's underlying form) while thekukushows-n(elder surface); recent batches keep them the same (-n) for simplicity — either is acceptable as long as the gloss saysPAST. Be consistent within a row. - Keep it token-aligned: the number and order of glossed items should track the Kuku words. When you fix a word, fix it in both the segmentation and (if the meaning changed) the gloss.
8. The recurring bugs — and exactly how to avoid each
These have all actually happened, more than once. Learn them cold.
- The desync bug (the big one). You reword a sentence
by string-replacing the full Kuku, but the replacement hits the
lowercase
analysissegmentation and misses the Capital-initialkuku(or vice versa), leaving the two fields describing different words. Prevention: reword token-wise on BOTH fields, and run the mandatory post-bank DB grep (§5.6) over every corrected token. This single check has caught 17+ desyncs across batches. The Capital-initial trap is specific:kukusentences start with a capital,analysiswith lowercase — a phrase at sentence position 0 needs two replaces. - The
-nhaaccusative relapse. Reaching for an English accusative on a noun object. There is none (§6). Write the object bare, or-nka(DAT) for abalkaaddressee, or the real pronoun accusative. The lint's/h/check catches it, but don't rely on that. - English-shaped phantoms (§4.2.3):
'truly/today/tomorrow/really/half/wide/ago' rarely have a KY word. Grep,
then use a particle / aspect /
niji/ omission. - Wrong-sense words (§4.2.2): the lint can't see them. Grep the gloss, always.
- Bare
kada: it must bekaday(nonpast) orkada-n(past). -nypast on the elder surface: reduce to-ninkuku(but not-nya/-nyji/-nyjiku/-nyaku).- LOC allomorphy (§6): the commonest flag.
jukar-anotjukar-ba;yalbay-mbanotyalbay-ba;bubu-ngu/-baby the final segment. - Heredoc scripts that don't commit. A Python DB
script that exits without
db.commit()silently rolls back — you think you banked and you didn't. Alwayscommit()and always read back a count. pkill -fmatching itself / self-matching waiters — if you ever background a process, remember apgrep -f <pat>matches its own command line. Not usually relevant here (this work is synchronous), but noted.- Silent truncation. If you ever cap coverage (top-N, sampling), say so. Don't let a partial pass read as complete.
9. The database schema (what you're writing into)
synthetic.db (SQLite). The tables you touch:
batches(id, label, created_at, notes)— one row per batch;labellike'batch-123';notesis the close summary.sentences(id, batch_id, seq, english, kuku, analysis, frame, tier, words_used, loans_used, evidence, status, confidence, rights_status, author, created_at, updated_at).status ∈ {under_review, accepted, revised}. The goal metric countsstatus IN ('accepted','revised').author='claude-main'.words_used/loans_usedare JSON. The 16-column INSERT order is fixed — copy it from a working bank file.reviews(id, sentence_id, round, lens, verdict, issues, suggested_fix, reviewer, created_at)— 5 per sentence at close.revisions(id, sentence_id, old_kuku, new_kuku, old_english, new_english, old_analysis, new_analysis, reason, created_at)— 9 bind params, nofieldcolumn — one per I3-safe edit of an accepted row.lessons(id, batch_id, category, lesson, guide_change, created_at)— 4–5 per batch.lexemes(headword, pos, gloss, attestation, corpus_freq, status, verified_at, ...)+lexeme_log(headword, action, detail, created_at)— upsert verified headwords at close.
Never DELETE FROM sentences for an
accepted row. Deleting/reinserting your own current under_review
batch before it's accepted is fine (that's how bank re-runs
work).
10. The I3-safe reconciliation sweep (for accepted-row debt)
When you discover that an accepted, closed batch used a phantom or wrong-sense word (it happens — the errata keeps a watchlist of these with row counts), you fix it as its own documented sweep, never a blind global replace:
rows = db.execute("SELECT id,kuku,analysis,english FROM sentences WHERE kuku LIKE '%BADWORD%' AND status IN('accepted','revised')").fetchall()
for sid,ku,an,en in rows:
assert 'BADWORD' in ku # exact-substring assert — a miss aborts before commit
nku = ku.replace('BADWORD','GOODWORD'); nan = an.replace('BADWORD','GOODWORD')
assert 'BADWORD' not in nku and nku != ku
db.execute("INSERT INTO revisions(sentence_id,old_kuku,new_kuku,old_english,new_english,old_analysis,new_analysis,reason,created_at) VALUES(?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?)",
(sid,ku,nku,en,en,an,nan,"<why + dict/grammar cite>",now))
db.execute("UPDATE sentences SET kuku=?,analysis=?,status='revised',updated_at=? WHERE id=?",(nku,nan,now,sid))
db.commit()Then re-lint (must stay GREEN) and mark the watchlist entry swept.
Interleave one such sweep between batches so accepted
debt shrinks as the corpus grows (the standing instruction names
candidates: janyji, burri, kunya,
jubi, jinbi, kalbal,
milkan, kulur-jambul, and now
bukul→done). Before a sweep, always inspect the
rows first — a word may be correct in some rows and wrong in
others (bikirr was 'skill' correctly in most rows, wrong
only as 'range').
11. Being a good linguist for this task (the softer craft)
- Read the grammar's example sentences before you
write. They are the ground truth for morphology. If Patz writes
wawu-bayka-nya-munyfor 'after it bit', you write the prior-event construction exactly that way. - Prefer the everyday over the exotic. The corpus voice is old people talking about hunting, weather, kin, country, food, the day's small events. Ground every sentence in that world; it keeps the vocabulary attestable and the register true.
- Let the Kuku lead. Decide what real, sayable Kuku Yalanji sentence you can build from attested words, then write the English to match it. This inverts the usual translation direction and is the secret to never needing a phantom.
- When two words both fit, check corpus frequency
(
SELECT COUNT(*) ... WHERE kuku LIKE '% word %') and follow the corpus norm — it keeps the model's training signal consistent (jukar-a70 vsjukar-ba2 → use-a). - Etymology & transparency are your friends. Kuku
Yalanji builds meaning by transparent compounding
(
mara-dajilhand-give = help;milka-wulayear-die = forget;binal-bungalknow-make = teach). Recognising these both explains the language and lets you form new (attested-element) compounds safely. - Honesty about doubt. If you're not sure a sentence is right, it isn't ready. Downgrade it, reword it, or drop it. A smaller correct batch beats a padded doubtful one.
- Keep the average up. If a batch is drifting short, lengthen the sentences with more real subordinate clauses — not filler.
12. A minimal worked example (the shape of one batch, end to end)
- Last completed batch: Batch 399 / Rule 357, complementary
linter-clean fish lexeme-set-F non-singular past perception after Rule
356. Every candidate was absent and every opposite was exactly
Batch 398 at the same sequence. The full 50-row batch, not a three-row
threshold patch, completed the non-singular 100-cell grid and all 200
selected set-F cells. It closed at 20,047 / 135,547 words, 250 passes,
35 lessons, 18 logs, export 16,820 / 1,609 / 1,618, with evidence in
process_eventsandprocess_logs/batch-399-complementary-linter-clean-fish-set-f-nonsingular-past-perception-after-rule356-process.md. - Do not begin another production batch as part of this milestone. Run and preserve the completion audit first.
- Before declaring completion, reread Rules 149-357 plus the errata
watchlist. The carry-forward risks remain (a) reopening implement
actions from Rules 149-150, (b) importing travel, route, water-use,

quality records: whole-corpus lint GREEN; five lenses for every closing-batch row; required lesson and lexeme/source-log inventories; no destructive loss; exact bank-to-database readback.
- Prove deliverables: manifest/line/five-field export parity, all four
canonical books current, raw/render parity, nine live resources 200 and
byte-exact,
/docs301 to/docs/, and/docs/200. - Write a mounted-drive completion-audit report mapping each
requirement to authoritative evidence. Seal its hash and the final Batch
399 process log in
process_events; only then declare the 20,000-sentence goal complete.
13. What "finished" looks like
At 20,000 verified sentences the program has: a lint-green,
fully-reviewed parallel corpus; a 357-rule mega cheatsheet; a dictionary
errata with a large verified-lexeme table and an explicit watchlist; and
a lexemes table of the forms the corpus has vouched for.
Those living books can now support the next editorial stage: a teaching
grammar, a learner's dictionary, and an interlinear reader. The sample
pages in SAMPLE-PRODUCTION-PAGES.md show the intended
finished form.
14. The 20,000-sentence milestone completion audit
The 2026-07-10 milestone completion audit passed at 20,047 verified sentences. The count reconciles as 6,297 through Batch 124 plus 275 complete 50-row batches (Batches 125-399), with zero open rows.
The closure proof includes:
- whole-corpus lint 20,047/0, zero normalized Kuku or English-Kuku
pair duplicates, clean foreign keys, and SQLite integrity
ok; - 68,750 original round-1 five-lens passes, plus 1,000 additive second-round passes for four authorship remediations;
- exact literal-source/database parity for all 13,750 goal-scope rows;
- 1,412/1,412 goal-scope lexical labels source-accounted, including an explicit 58-form morphological ledger;
- 7,703 lessons, 5,814 batch-linked lexeme/source logs, and structured process evidence for all 275 batches;
- exact 20,047-row export parity and live byte parity for all nine

The corpus was frozen for the v21 paired RunPod experiment. Both
lanes are complete: Codex trained the v21.1 synthetic-direct ablation
and Claude trained the v21.2 balanced-replay treatment. Their isolation
and evaluation contract is in
docs/kuku-yalanji-v21-parallel-runpod-handoff-2026-07-10.md;
the independent paired audit is in
reports/KUKU-YALANJI-V21-INDEPENDENT-MODEL-COMPARISON-2026-07-12.md.
Qualification: milestone PASS does not mean elder
certification. Every goal-scope row remains
project_approved_synthetic_pending_elder_verification;
model training is research use, and future corrections must use the
revision ledger.
15. The v2 model candidate and what the run established
Codex's synthetic-only treatment completed on RunPod on 2026-07-10
under immutable experiment ID
v21.1-codex-synthetic-direct-gvn-3epoch-lr2e-5. Its
product-facing alias is Kuku Yalanji translation model v2
candidate. The effective leakage-audited treatment was 16,642
train, 1,609 validation, and 1,606 synthetic-test rows, with 190
source-corpus rows quarantined rather than deleted.
The mandatory 128-row gate first failed at 30 epochs (69 exact; chrF 72.07), correctly preventing full training. The documented 100-epoch gate amendment passed at 128/128 exact and chrF 100, after which the locked three-epoch run completed. Synthetic test scored chrF 54.70 tagged and 54.40 untagged with zero empty outputs. External-domain performance was poor: elder-shared chrF 28.80, DB usage 34.40, and Bible direct/reference 28.55/28.76.
The interpretation is narrow and binding: the model learned the synthetic corpus process but did not establish general Kuku Yalanji competence and suffered substantial domain loss. It is research-only, is not elder-certified, must not replace retrieval-first translation, and must not be silently routed to public users. Compare it with Claude's balanced-replay lane and require human/elder evaluation before promotion.

Archive closure passed: 192/192 model files matched remote SHA-256
values; local CPU and remote CUDA model loads produced identical smoke
outputs; the RunPod pod was deleted; and a fresh account query returned
zero active pods. After that frozen run closed, 14 additive
model-process events were written as IDs 4732-4745. A verified pre-write
SQLite backup was retained, live and backup integrity both returned
ok, and sentence/review/revision/lesson/lexeme counts were
unchanged. The recorder and result are
completion_audits/record_v21_1_training_process.py and
completion_audits/v21.1-process-ledger-result.json.
16. Independent v21.1 versus v21.2 ruling
The sealed comparison was rerun from both prediction archives on 2026-07-12. All seven shared held-outs have byte-identical prepared files, identical ordered inputs/references, and identical greedy decoder settings. Both full archive manifests and both prepared-data manifests pass SHA-256 verification.
Claude's v21.2 balanced-replay model is the better research candidate of record. Relative to v21.1, its paired mean sentence chrF++ difference on the 1,606-row tagged synthetic test is +0.082 with 95% CI [-0.225, +0.396]: no measurable mean synthetic cost. It gains +12.74 corpus chrF on the 84-row dictionary-usage held-out and +15.23/+15.15 on the two 325-row Bible held-outs. The replay treatment therefore solves much of v21.1's adjacent-domain forgetting.
That is not a deployment pass. Both models score 0/43 exact on the elder-shared set, average only about 0.68 of its reference token length, and remain near chrF 29. v21.2 also has more catastrophic repeated-morpheme runs on long synthetic rows (37 versus 25 rows with one orthographic segment repeated at least ten times), even though it sharply reduces v21.1's Bible and dictionary over-generation. Questions and comitatives are the clearest descriptive synthetic regressions; ergative, ablative, and subordinate slices are approximately tied.
The causal claim is limited: v21.2 has 22,164 rows/epoch and 4,155 updates versus v21.1's 16,642 and 3,120, so replay composition is confounded with a 33% larger update budget. Preserve both archives. Before another training run, freeze a new natural-register held-out, add degeneration gates, and design a step-matched, preferably multi-seed replay ablation. Before any public promotion, require blind Kuku Yalanji speaker evaluation.

17. Translation-system benchmark and current routing decision
The 2026-07-13 reference-blind post-edit benchmark compared v21.1,
v21.2, Codex gpt-5.4-mini, and Claude Opus on the 43-row
elder-shared control. The LLMs saw two per-row randomized custom-model
drafts plus leakage-filtered training examples, dictionary entries, and
grammar sections. They did not see the held-out references. Exact source
and target surfaces were excluded from retrieval, and the final evidence
bundles contained zero complete reference surface hits.
Codex had the highest point score at 30.96 corpus chrF++, followed by Claude at 30.13, v21.2 at 29.36, and v21.1 at 28.80. Codex's paired mean sentence chrF++ gain over v21.2 was +1.52 with 95% bootstrap CI [+0.34, +2.86]. Claude's gain was +0.77, CI [-0.18, +1.91]. Claude minus Codex was -0.75, CI [-1.57, +0.05], so this small experiment does not establish a reliable provider winner. All systems remained 0/43 exact and under-length relative to the references.
The resulting product rule is binding until new evidence supersedes it:
- exact rights-cleared sentence/resource lookup first;
- unique exact dictionary lookup for narrow lexical queries;
- v21.2 only as a labelled, degeneration-guarded research draft for novel text;
- LLM post-editing stays disabled until a larger frozen set and blind Kuku Yalanji speaker review pass;
- every generation and correction retains model, prompt, evidence, rights, dialect/register, and supersession provenance.
