Description: | In this session the narrator tells us how the Taipi dialect ('eo avaangi) came into existence. Two canoes from the Ha'akimoohitu tribe of Taipivai went to Rarotonga in order to get the precious red feathers for their chiefs and princesses. During the voyage one canoe lacks water and they get a kind of coconut oil mixed with genger (huhe) - a body oil - from the other canoe to drink instead. After having drank it, they develop a creeky voice and start talking through the nose. The narrator doubts the authenticity of the events. | |
The project documents several different aspects of the Marquesan culture (legends, narratives, food preparation, plant medicine, fishing techniques, Marquesan trick languages, songs, dances etc.) | ||

Mi was born in 1930 and grew up on the island of Nuku Hiva in Ho'oumi with his adoptive father Moa (born in 1901). Mi does not speak French and did not go to school; however, he is not illiterate. Mi is one of the few persons on the Marquesas islands who have a considerable knowledge of the former Marquesan culture, in particular of songs, legends/narratives and dances. He is also one of the few people who can speak Marquesan trick languages fluently. Most of his cultural knowledge was transmitted by his adoptive father. | ||
