Description:CNK performs what the collectors assumed to be U K'ay ti7 Huch' 'Song for Grinding (Corn)', the traditional women's work song that accompanies the making of tortillas. The event was prompted by the collectors, in an effort to record women's discourse genres. However, it is clear that this particular song is not the same as JK's version of U K'ay ti' Päk'äch 'The Song for MakingTortillas'. Nevertheless, the performance provides an opportunity to study the creative use of language in a non-ordinary speech context. The household ambience is preserved, with family members going about their daily lives. Chickens and dogs go about their business freely, and their squawking and barking occassionally overlaps CNK's voice.
