Description:This is the third recording session with Om, the two year-old son of CHX and KA. The purpose is to record child language acquisition.
Lacandon Cultural Heritage is a documentation of the language and culture of the northern Lacandon(Maya), who live in the rain forest in Chiapas, the south-eastern state of Mexico. They number approximately 350 men, women and children, who have retained much of their traditional culture and religion. The project serves as a preservative measure against loss of the traditional knowledge, stories, and verbal performances that are central to Lacandon culture. It also serves as an interactive resource tool for linguists and non-linguists to access data relevant to their areas of interest, such as folklore, ethnobotany, cultural anthropology, etc.
This is the third recording session with Om, the two year-old son of CHX and KA. In this session, the camera simply follows Om around. The purpose is to record naturally occurring speech, which, in this case, are one-syllable words. Other sessions with Om filmed in this period are Om_01, Om_02, Om_04, Om_05.
Lacandon is the primary language spoken in this session. Spanish is spoken sparingly by the collector.
Om is the main contributor in this session. The collector is present and can be heard asking Om questions and generally trying to get him to talk.
The collector of this session data is also responsbile for the collection of all of the data sessions and the whole project.
Om is the first child of CHX and KA. He is the grandson of KP, and nephew of CNK, SK, KGP, KyG, CKD. He is the grandson of CK. He has a little sister, who has not been named yet.
