MD (male) MD was born in 1932 in Baures and is a half-brother of AD and CD. He is a cattle owner (approx. 70 bovines) and peasant. MD is a good Baure speaker but not that fluent, due to lack of practice. He is very helpful in transcribing and translating Baure-texts. MD has very good knowledge of Baure history and customs. He knows how to play traditional music on the flute and used to work as a teacher of culture in the local school.

MD es un buen hablante del baure pero no habla con mucha fluidez por falta de práctica. Él es muy dispuesto en ayudar en transcribir y traducir grabaciones en baure. Tiene muchos conocimientos de la historia y de las costumbres de Baures. Sabe tocar música tradicional en la flauta. Solía trabajar como profesor de cultura en la escuela local.
