Abstract:

This book is a collection of 15 narratives in Hewramî. It offers a
unique window into the life of Hewramî speakers, including their oral
and social history, social relations, recollections of past life, and
storytelling traditions. The stories were told by five narrators. All
the stories have been transcribed, translated, annotated, and
analysed.
The volume contains an introduction that provides an overview of the
language and speech community. The texts are presented in two formats:
as parallel column texts (Hewramî/English) and as interlinearised
glossed texts, containing detailed linguistic analysis. Many of the
narratives contain elements of hagiographies, focusing on moral
lessons.
This book complements the Hewramî grammar
(https://langsci-press.org/catalog/book/517).
