| Description: | This second recording in Pambamarquito takes place near the ravine mentioned in the earlier recording. Floyd speaks with one woman while another goes to bring her cows back from pasture. She tells about how she and her family have lived in traditional thatch and adobe houses in the vicinity for generations. She talks about how they used the agave to make guarango (alcoholic drink). Later she worked for the flower plantations, but this had negative consequences for her health, so she quit and cured herself with the agave water. Later in the recording she shows some of her agave plants. Her friend arrives with the cows and the last part of the video features part of the animals’ walk home. | |
| Ecuadorian Highland Quichua is a distinct Quechuan language unique to the Ecuadorian Andes, unintelligible with any other language in the Quechuan family. It is currently undergoing rapid shift to Spanish in all regions where it is spoken, but the most extreme language shift is found in Province of Pichincha where in most indigenous communities the only speakers are of advanced age. This project continues an ongoing effort to document Ecuadorian Highland Quichua across multiple provinces. This phase of the project focuses on areas of high language endangerment in Pichincha Province and bordering areas of neighboring provinces. Participants from multiple communities collaborate in filming conversations and activities including spoken Quichua in order to create a register of linguistic diversity across different dialects and micro-varieties. The recordings are then transcribed and translated to Spanish by a team of native speaker researchers. | ||
| Sessions include conversation and activities, semi-structured in collaboration with participants. | ||
