| Description: | This session was recorded in Gorkha district of western Nepal. In this dialogue Tokman and Kamala who are native speakers of Baram language has told a short description of Churung Mela festival. | |
| This project aims to document Baram, a seriously endangered language of Nepal, for its preservation and promotion. For this purpose, we will develop a corpus of the various texts of the Baram language and thereby prepare resources such as its sketch grammar, lexicon and ethnographic profile. To revitalize the language, we will develop Baram orthography and prepare a Baram primer to facilitate its use in basic education and literacy programmes. The audio-video recordings of the Baram database will be archived with its annotation in a website for its accessibility to linguists, ethnographers and the Baram speech community. | ||
| The Churung Mela festival was perfomed since ancester's time. The people from all places come there when celebrating the festival.
