Title:How Ketuki become useless
IGotGorkha
Linguistic and Ethnographic Documentation of the Baram Language
Contributor:Krishna
Contributor (consultant):Dambar
Coverage:Nepal
Description:This was recorded at the site office of LEDBL at Gorkha in the beginning days of data gathering in the field. We had invited Dambar Bahadur Baram and Tok Man Baram from Danda Gaun Gorkha as language consultants. Since Tok Man was ready to tell us about the origin of Hashish, he told us this story. This is a story about Shivaji.
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 file, Dambar Bahadur Baram describes his travel from his village to Gorkha. He also mentions how he waits for the teachers (researchers) coming to Gorkha from Kathmandu. Dambar was accompanied by Tokman Baram on his travel from is village to Gorkha. Additionally, he mentions about his staying at a hotel in Gorkha.
