aweti@zedat.fu-berlin.de, sebadru@zedat.fu-berlin.de, lieb@zedat.fu-berlin.deFreie Universität BerlinThis project aims at the documentation of the Awetí Language and aspects of the Awetí culture.
Awetí is a tupian language of a small speech community of the same name at the southern edge of the Amazon rain forest, in the Xingú reserve, Mato Grosso, central Brazil.
The project was funded December 2000--April 2006 by the VolkswagenStiftung in the Documentation of Endangered Languages Programme (DOBES).
The principal researcher, Sebastian Drude, initianted his research among the Aweti in 1998.
Sabine Reiter participated as a freelancer in 2001 and as research assistant (including conducting field research) from 2002 on.
The Awetí participated intensively in the project. At least one person of each houshold provided individual texts, the community agreed to be documented in day-to-day activities and during special events such as rituals. Several Awetí got involved in the further processing of the documentation data, especially by assisting in the creation of transcriptions and translations during the 9 field trips and in 8 visits of two to three speakers in Belém or Canarana../fr-lng-clt/cult/contactCultural dataCulture ContactGuest HouseUnspecifiedUnspecifiedUnspecifiedUnspecifiedUnspecifiedUnspecifiedUnspecifiedUnspecifiedISO639-3:aweAwetíUnspecifiedUnspecifiedUnspecifiedAwetí, a Tupian language, is the native tongue of most of the members of the Awetí community.ISO639-3:porPortugueseUnspecifiedUnspecifiedUnspecifiedThe variety of Brazilian Portuguese spoken by members of the Awetí community has got elements of a contact language to varying degrees (see Emmerich 1992, 2000).

He works for the Awetí Project as the first consultant, doing transcriptions and helping with translations and elicitation.018 knows Portuguese well.
As his father 009 is a kamayurá, he also knows that language.
His grandmother (025) is a Yawalapiti, therefore he has at least some passive command of that language.ISO639-3:yawYawalapitífalsefalseYawalapiti (and not Yawalapití) is an Arawakan language of the Upper Xingú, not a dialedt of Waurá / Mehinaku.
010's mother is a Yawalapiti, therefore their children and many grandchildren at least understand that language.
The language is highly endangered as there are only some adult and almost no younger speakers. The language is used by a minority only in the Yawalapiti village, but nevertheless it is the distincitve feature of that group.
The Yawalapiti chief Aritana is considered to be the first among the Upper Xinguan chiefs, but this does not make Yawalapiti a more prestigius language.
On the other side, the myth ### on the origin of languages seems to give Yawalapiti a priority state among the Xinguan languages.ISO639-3:kayKamayuráfalsetrueKamayurá is a Tupí-Guaranian language spoken in two villages in the Upper Xingú.
