Summary of deposit
Anal is an endangered Tibeto-Burman language (ca. 20,000 speakers) in Manipur, Northeast India. The available data presents a remarkable morphological complexity, typologically unusual properties and archaic features, valuable for historical analysis. Like many other endangered languages of this linguistically diverse, under-documented region, Anal experiences a great pressure from the official state language Manipuri.This project will build upon the recently initiated project of community-driven documentation of traditional oral literature. Relying on the work of community members, it will create an annotated multi-media corpus of everyday Anal conversation. It will additionally document grammatical data, which presents a number of typological peculiarities.
Group represented Anal tribe - Anal Naga tribe lives in the South-Eastern part of the Indian state of Manipur, in the area of the India-Burmese border. There is also a single village across the border in Myanmar. The tribe speaks a Tibeto-Burman language of the North-Western branch. The estimated number of speakers is 20,000.
Special characteristics Special characteristics
Deposit contents The data are primarily recordings of natural conversations in everyday settings of the speakers. However, in a few cases the speakers preferred to narrate their personal stories or tribal legends. The data was collected in 2016 in different areas where the tribe lives. Some recordings were carried out in the valley towns of Chandel and Chakpikarong. Many other recordings were collected during the visits to the original hilltop villages in Sulam area (Ralruwng, Dutang) and Greenhills area (Phiran Khullen, Oklu). The collection contains audio and video data.
