Description:		This talk is between the speakers of two different dialects of Chintang. It was recorded in Dhankuta. The recording quality is good.
		The aim of the project is to provide a rich linguistic and ethnographic documentation of two highly endangered but almost totally undocumented languages in eastern Nepal, Chintang and Puma. These languages belong to the Kiranti family of Tibeto-Burman. Chintang is spoken by the Chintang Rai in Chintang Village Development Committee (VDC) of Dhankuta district. Puma is spoken by the Puma Rai in Diplung, Mauwabote and Pauwasera VDCs, to the south of Khotang bazar in Khotang district. Both these districts are situated in the eastern hilly part of the country.http://www.cpdp.uzh.ch
		Rikhi asks Janak about her activities of these days. Janak says she is not enganged in any type of special work except her households. Thus the whole talk is concentrated on the family matters.

		Rikhi and Janak are the active participants of this session. They also work as regular consultants in our project. Netra is the collector and annotator of this session.
