Description:		This session was recorded in Gorkha district. Tokman who is a fluent native speaker of Baram language has told this description of first travel in Bhot (Tibet). This is very interesting reminiscense.
		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.
		Lopre is a first trip to Bhot (Tibet) is very interesting reminiscence. Tokman who told this monologue was there in Lopre with other three people. They stay in many places and finally they reach to the Bhot. The People hit him with a stick. Searching for yam and making like that of male person’s organ, all the people had to carry it till the next day. Finally, they put it in a tree near to the hot-water. Tokman fully wet and goes little up in the evening. One day, they cruse legs by using the nettle and this irritates very much. The Tibetan people also make the fodder and kept it there to feed the grass for them. While returning, they do nothing. It takes about 12 days to return to the home.
