Description: | The participant was requested by the collector (Netra) to sing a folk song. But he sang an invented song which was composed by himself. He was leaving home for Kathmandu and he meets a young lady on the way. He initiates a talk with the lady and and the dialogue starts in a love song. The recording took place during the day time at a home in Chintang. The sound qualitiy of this session 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, Devisthan 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 | ||
RCR introduces himself in the beginning and sings his own song. He requests the young girl to go for outing. He also insists the girl to keep contact with him. | ||
Chintang is the dominant language throughout the session.The speaker borrows very few words from Bantawa and Nepali languages. | ||
RCR works as a singer for this session. Netra recorded and annotated this session. | ||
I completed Masters Degree in Linguistics from Tribhuvan University, and currently working as a Research Assistant in the (DOBES) project. I am in charge of Linguistic works and analysis. | ||
RCR was born and brought up in Chintang, Mulgaun. Both he and his parents have Chintang as their first native language, he is tele by clan. He is migrated to Itahari recently, but keeps on visiting Chintang regularly. | ||
