Description:SK narrates Frog Where Are You, Mercer Mayer's picture book, for the collectors. The purpose is to compare the narratives of bilinguals. A Spanish version is found in session Frogstory_sp_SK.
Lacandón Cultural Heritage is a documentation of the language and culture of the northern Lacandón(Maya), who live in the rain forest in Chiapas, the south-eastern state of Mexico. They number approximately 350 men, women and children, who have retained much of their traditional traditional culture and religion. The project serves as a preservative measure against loss of the traditional knowledge, stories, and verbal performances that are central to Lacandón culture. It also serves as an interactive resource tool for linguists and non-linguists to access data relevant to their areas of interest, such as folklore, ethnobotany, cultural anthropology, etc.
SK narrates Frog Where Are You, Mercer-Mayer's picture book. The collectors requested that he do this, for a comparative analysis of the narratives of bilingual Lacandones. The Spansih version is found in session Frogstory_sp_SK.
