Description:A conversation between several people in the ''waiting room' of the nursery (i.e. the bench right next to the entrance).
A project for the analysis and description of the Tiriyó language, based on fieldwork. It started in 1993 (under Dr. Spike Gildea's Northern Brazilian Cariban Languages Documentatino Project, NSF grant DBS-9210130) and continues to the present.
This file was generated from an IMDI 1.9 file and transformed to IMDI 3.0. The substructure of Genre is replaced by two elements named "Genre" and "SubGenre". The original content of Genre substructure was: Interactional = 'conversation', Discursive = 'Unspecified', Performance = 'Unspecified'. These values have been added as Keys to the Content information.
This session contains part of a conversation between several people who were waiting for their turn at the nursery in Missão Tiriós. (I haven't transcribed it yet). This conversation took place right before the conversation about Renato's'punishment.
Only Tiriyó was used hroughout the session.
It is not clear whether there was only one conversation, or two going on. Sérgio simply listened and recorded, saying nothing.
Sérgio Meira is the main researcher in the Tiriyó descriptive project.
Alcino (Tiriyó name: Enkiri) is a 20-ish-year-old young man. I didn't talk directly to him and have no further detailed information about him.
Marciano (Tiriyó name: MInausi) is a 20-ish-year old Tiriyó (maried to Susan) who lives at Missão Tirió. He is an intelligent young man, usually a very good consultant on matters of syntax and semantics.
Idaliana is a 20-ish-year-old woman who worked as a nurse for a while at Missão Tiriós and then in another village.
Susan is a 20-ish-year-old young woman. She is Marciano's wife. She speaks K-Tiriyó (apparently she is from the Tëpu area).
Sérgio Meira is also the researcher responsible for the project on the analysis and description of the Tiriyó language.
The original tape was given to Dick van den Born, who made me an identical copy. I digitized this copy, which is the source for the MPEG file.
