Description:This session was recorded from Mr. Sabbal Singh Baram in Gorkha. At this time he was unfamiliar with telling stories and the recording environment. He was hesitating but we requested him to tell us something in Baram. Finally, he was ready to tell us the description of living places of different animals.
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.
This session was recorded from Mr. Sabbal Singh Baram in Gorkha. He is an old man with a long experiences in agriculture. In this text he has described the way how animal sheds are built in the Baram community.
Mr. Sabbal Singh Baram is a fluent speaker of Baram language. We started to work with him from the latter of the project and have taken few texts from him. His texts are generally interesting and clear.
Mr. Krishna Paudel is a Research Assistant (RA) in this project. He has been actively participate in the field work, computing and other activeities.
