This project aims at the documentation of the Awetà Language and aspects of the Awetà culture. Awetà 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 Awetà 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 Awetà 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. | ||
List of bird's names elicited by pictures. 113, nickname "Socrates", is possibly the best hunter and experienced scout in the group. His skills in catching birds, fish and animals and his love forstaying in the forest are well known. However, his language skills are questionned by many, and it cannot be excluded that there are some inonsistencies and mistakes in his answers. | ||
The consultant gives the bird's names in Awetà after their Portuguese and Latin names have been given by the researcher. | ||
Sebastian asks 113 the names of birds in Awetà by showing their pictures in a book. The conversation is held in Portuguese. | ||
