Description: | ENGLISH: A Trumai old woman talks about facts of her childhood and other issues related to the Trumai people. She is interviewed by her granddaughter. The video was shot in the village where the Trumai speaker lives (a note: unfortunately the input for external microphone of the video camera got damaged during the field work, and as a result of that the video got a hiss on the background. However, it is perfectly possible to understand what the Trumai speaker says). ----- PORTUGUÊS: Uma mulher idosa Trumai fala sobre fatos de sua infância e outros relacionados com o povo Trumai. Ela é entrevistada pela neta. O vídeo foi filmado na aldeia onde a falante de Trumai vive (uma observação: infelizmente a saída para microfone externo da filmadora danificou-se durante o trabalho de campo, e como resulto disso o vídeo ficou com chiado ao fundo. No entanto, é perfeitamente possível entender o que a falante de Trumai diz). | |
The purpose of the project is to document Trumai, a genetically isolate language spoken in Brazil. The archive consists of a collection of texts in the language, plus other kinds of materials relative to the Trumai culture, such as photos, drawings, songs, educational materials, etc. | ||
An old woman talks about facts of her childhood and other historical facts. | ||
The speakers talk in Trumai. | ||
There are two main participants: Speaker5 (the main speaker) and her granddaugther (Speaker8), who interviews her. In the beginning of the recording, Speaker8 is seated by the side of her gradmother, holding her baby. Later she stands up and walks in order to distract the baby, but she keeps the interview going. | ||
Speaker8 is a native speaker of Trumai. Her mother is Trumai, her father is Waurá. She was married for a while; nowadays she is separated, living with her parents and her little son. | ||
Speaker5 is the oldest Trumai speaker alive. She lives with one of her grand-daughters. Her husband was Kamayurá. Speaker5 has never learned to speak Portuguese, and for this reasons all her children grandchildren had to learn Trumai, in order to communicate with her. They claim that the Trumai variety that Speaker5 speaks is a little different from the variety they speak nowadays (Speaker5 uses archaic terms and old expressions). She is an old woman (70 or more). | ||
Raquel is a Brazilian linguist. She has been working with the Trumai people since 1989. She has a Ph.D. in Linguistics from Rice University (Houston, Texas, U.S.A). | ||
