Description:This session was recorded in Gorkha. In this session first Dambar and Tok Man discussed about the different types of jungles, the kinds trees available in the jungles and the uses of the trees. After they were ready, we recorded the session under a controlled setting.
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.
In this text Tok Man and Dambar discuss about the different types of jungle found in the area. They also talk about the different species of trees and plants available in the different types of jungle and their uses. And this is a continues session with Jungle_Des2.
