Nongtang – Grammatical recordings
2009-12-23
Three recordings in which Nongtang Langching gives some information on Grammar. These consist of the following sound files:
SDM15-20091223-01_SM_T_Prohibitives.wav
SDM15-20091223-02_SM_T_MinimalPairs.wav
SDM15-20091227-01_SM_T_MinimalPairs.wav
The details of these recordings are as follows:
SDM15-20091223-01_SM_T_Prohibitives.wav; Duration 3’07”; Some examples of the prohibitive, naq V ki construction
SDM15-20091223-02_SM_T_MinimalPairs.wav; Duration 1’00”; Three tones. khe² ‘to plant’; khe¹ ‘clothes’, khae³ ‘water’. The vowel of the latter is lower.
SDM15-20091227-01_SM_T_MinimalPairs.wav; Duration 1’13”; The minimal pairs kau² ‘hill’, kau¹ ‘give’

This project contains linguistic, musicological, ethnographic and other cultural information about three communities in Upper Assam: Singpho, Tai and Tangsa. The recordings and analyses have been done by Stephen Morey, together with Palash Kumar Nath (Gauhati University), Juergen Schoepf (Phonogrammarchiv, Vienna), Meenaxi Barkataki Ruscheweyh (Goettingen Academy of Sciences), Chaichuen Khamdaengyodtai (Rajabhat University, Chiang Mai), Zeenat Tabassum (Gauhati University), Karabi Mazumder (Gauhati University), Krishna Boro (Gauhati University), Paul Hastie (LaTrobe University).
The key aims of the project were
• to provide a comprehensive documentation of the varieties of Tangsa language spoken in the Margherita Subdivision of Upper Assam, India,
• to provide a comprehensive documentation of the traditional songs, and poetry of three endangered language communities in the Margherita Subdivision: the Tangsa and Singpho (both Tibeto-Burman) and the Tai (Tai-Kadai), including a study of Tai traditional manuscripts, which are highly relevant for language and culture maintenance among the Tai.
Within each of these communities there is considerable linguistic and cultural diversity, so all the files have been divided up and named according to this system:
Tai
SDM01 Phake
SDM02 Aiton
SDM03 Khamyang
SDM04 Ahom
SDM05 Khamti
Singpho
SDM07 Turung
SDM08 Numhpuk Hkawng
SDM09 Diyun Hkawng
SDM10 Tieng Hkawng

SDM11 Yongkuk
SDM12 Cholim (Tonglum)
SDM13 Chamchang (Kimsing)
SDM14 Tikhak
SDM15 Lochhang (Langching)
SDM16 Ngaimong
SDM17 Maitai
SDM18 Shechhyoe
SDM19 Mossang
SDM20 Khalak
SDM21 Lakkai
SDM22 Longri
SDM23 Hakhun
SDM24 Lungkhe
SDM25 Rera (Ronrang)
SDM26 Sangte
SDM27 Sangwal
SDM28 Halang
SDM29 Haseng
SDM30 Mungray (Morang)
SDM31 Moklum
SDM32 Nokja
SDM33 Hawoi (Havi)
SDM34 Joglei (Jogly)
SDM35 Namsang (Nocte)
SDM36 Longchang
Among the Tangsa, there is considerable diversity. Each group has its own name for itself and for each other group. In the list above, the name in parentheses is sometimes called the 'general name', whereas the first listed name is that used by the group for themselves. The naming of Tangsa groups needs considerable further research

Tangsa - Lochhang variety (general name Langching)
true
Unspecified
Unspecified
Lochhang is a variety of Tangsa spoken in Assam, Arunachal Pradesh and in Burma. Lochhang is one of the Pangwa Tangsa groups within India. Other Tangsa groups have different names for the Lochhang and the 'general name' is Langching.
Lochhang recordings in this archive have the code nst-loc as the first element of their names. This coding contains the ISO639-3 code for all Tangsa languages (nst), in combination with an informal code for the Tangsa variety. Prior to 16th February 2012, our Lochhang recordings were named with the code SDM15.
Tangsa is the name given in India to groups in both Changlang district of Arunachal Pradesh and in Assam speaking languages of the Northern Naga also known as Konyak group within the Tibeto-Burman language family. There is very considerable linguistic variety within Tangsa., and some of the languages included within Tangsa are linguistically closer to Nocte than to other varieties within Tangsa.
The ethnologue code for Tangsa is NST. It is termed Naga-Tase in the Ethnologue. The word Tase is the Chamchang (General name Kimsing) pronunciation of the word Tangsa and was adopted by ISO639-3 because Chamchang was the first variety to have a Christian Bible translation and thus was listed in the Ethnologue.
There are Lochhang people in the villages of Hewe Ninggam and Kharang Kong in Assam, and Jengpathar, Longtom, Ongman, Nalong and Febiro 1 in the Kharsang area of Changlang District, Arunachal Pradesh.
The Lochhang variety is most similar to Chamchang (general name Kimsing) and Shechhue (general name Shangke). Most other Tangsa speakers find Lochhang difficult to understand.
