Description:ENGLISH: A Trumai speaker and her grandmother have a conversation about an alligator that was found by her brother. They talk about the features of the alligator. The recording was made by a Trumai young man, with the help of the researcher. ----- PORTUGUÊS: Uma falante de Trumai e sua avó conversam sobre um jacaré que foi encontrado pelo irmão dela. Elas falam das características do jacaré. A gravação foi feita por um jovem Trumai, com a ajuda da pesquisadora.
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.
The session consists of a conversation between a woman and her grandmother about an alligator.
The speakers talk in Trumai.
The conversation is performed by Speaker8 and Speaker5.
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).
