This project documents A’ingae (also known as Kofán and Cofán), a linguistic isolate spoken by approximately 1,500 speakers in Ecuador and Colombia. The deposit consists of high quality audio and video recordings of speakers talking about a variety of different topics and covers different kinds of speech events/genres. The deposit consists of approximately 17 hours of naturalistic video and a small amount of additional audio wordlists. The recordings comprise 25 speakers, roughly one third of Zábalo’s adult population. They cover a variety of different topics and genres including traditional stories, jokes, autobiographical narratives, explanations of how to make traditional crafts and foods, hunting, protecting the local environment among others. Interviews were conducted in A’ingae by 3 native speakers who are members of the project team. While collecting more naturalistic conversation is a goal for future work, some of these recordings are more or less conversational in nature.
