      • Description : 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 Tangsa 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

          • Description : Joglei is a variety of Tangsa spoken in Assam and Arunachal Pradesh. Joglei is one of the Pangwa Tangsa groups within India. Other Tangsa groups have different names for the Joglei and the 'general name' is Jugly, also spelled Jogly. Some Joglei people said that correctly the name should be written Joklei, but due to assimilation the /k/ is realised as a voiced /g/. Joglei recordings in this archive have the code nst-jog 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 Joglei recordings were named with the code SDM34. 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. The Joglei variety is one of the most widely spoken varieties of Tangsa spoken in Indai. It is spoken by well over 1000 people in Khasan, Lungvi, Khaikepothar, and Febiro I villages in Kharsang, and in Bubang, Reema, Lunlong, Rangran, Ranglum and Kantang in Changlang. It is also the variety chosen for use in Presbyterian churches in Assam and Arunachal Pradesh, and consequently known by Presbyterians who are not Joglei.
