Description:The story was recorded indoors.
The overall goal of the project is the documentation and preservation of the Hoocąk language. The project therefore includes the following sub-projects: (1) (audio- and video-)recording, analysing, processing and archiving a representative corpus of Hoocąk texts, (2) linguistic analysis and representation of texts that have previously been recorded by other linguists or anthropologists, (3) development of a comprehensive and linguistically consistent lexicon, (4) training of Hoocąk language instructors, (5) development of teaching material (6) further analyses (e.g. investigation of dialectal differences among Wisconsin and Nebraska Hoocąks)
MS31, MS4 and MS30 talked about stories they've listened to in their childhood. The grandfathers told them the stories. The stories are about fasting and thirsting. They had to go through hard times. MS4 and MS31 were of the opinion that it was very important to them to listen to such stories.
Hoocąk is the primary language used in this session. However, there are some sentences in English at the beginning of the text (following the greeting) that explain why the text is being produced.
IH's first language is German. She is fluent in English and has good knowledge of Hoocąk.
MS31 has been the head of the Hoocąk Waaziija Haci Language Division in Mauston, Wi since 2000 and is considered to be a very good speaker of the language. He had some experience in story telling.
MS4 is our main consultant and a highly respected elder and Hoocąk speaker. He worked for the movie industry (Hollywood) for 40 years as an actor. MS4 appears in several recordings.
MS30 used to work as an operating engineer. For a few year he has worked as language instructor at Hoocąk Language Center (HLC) and was concerned with the development of teaching materials. Since 2006 he is the director of the Language Center in Mauston. Both his father and his mother were fluent speakers and tought him the language.
