Description:		This project aims to document Baram, a seriously endangered language of Nepal, for its preservation and promotion. For this purpose, we will develop a corpus of the various texts of the Baram language and thereby prepare resources such as its sketch grammar, lexicon and ethnographic profile. To revitalize the language, we will develop Baram orthography and prepare a Baram primer to facilitate its use in basic education and literacy programmes. The audio-video recordings of the Baram database will be archived with its annotation in a website for its accessibility to linguists, ethnographers and the Baram speech community.
		Mina Baram describes the illness and death of her husband. She also describes all the processes she underwent in observing the ritual which she had to do as a widow. She thus describes the ritual involved in Baram community in the mourning of the death in detail. Towards the end of the text she describes the difficulties she faced being a widow in Baram community.
