Description:This is a role play in which Tok Man is playing a role of the president of a public meeting. The meeting is to discuss about the school. After we gave the situation he tried for two times in front of us and then he was sure about himself. Then we recorded the session.
This project aims to document Baram, a seriously endangered language of Nepal, for its preservation and promotion. For this purpose, we will develop a corpus of the various texts of the Baram language and thereby prepare resources such as its sketch grammar, lexicon and ethnographic profile. To revitalize the language, we will develop Baram orthography and prepare a Baram primer to facilitate its use in basic education and literacy programmes. The audio-video recordings of the Baram database will be archived with its annotation in a website for its accessibility to linguists, ethnographers and the Baram speech community.
This is a role play in which Tok Man is playing a role of the president of a public meeting. The meeting is to discuss about the school. In this speech he talks about the history of the school, and what can be done to improve the condition of the school.
