Description:The audio recording of session, which was recorded on the 20th of June at the men's house, consists of a conversation going on between Sebastian Drude and several Awetí men . The recording should be transcribed and further annotated at some point. There is no corresponding video recording.
This project aims at the documentation of the Awetí Language and aspects of the Awetí culture. Awetí is a tupian language of a small speech community of the same name at the southern edge of the Amazon rain forest, in the Xingú reserve, Mato Grosso, central Brazil. The project was funded December 2000--April 2006 by the VolkswagenStiftung in the Documentation of Endangered Languages Programme (DOBES). The principal researcher, Sebastian Drude, initianted his research among the Aweti in 1998. Sabine Reiter participated as a freelancer in 2001 and as research assistant (including conducting field research) from 2002 on. The Awetí participated intensively in the project. At least one person of each houshold provided individual texts, the community agreed to be documented in day-to-day activities and during special events such as rituals. Several Awetí got involved in the further processing of the documentation data, especially by assisting in the creation of transcriptions and translations during the 9 field trips and in 8 visits of two to three speakers in Belém or Canarana.
The session contains a conversation going on between several Awetí men and Sebastian Drude during the Jawari feast.
When engaged in everyday conversation among themselves the men speak Awetí. The contact language between the Awetí population and people from outside the Xingú area is Portuguese.
