Notas:

  • Etnográfica:
    Generic name for birds. Some are specified by adding adjectives, such as "singsak saala," (bird red); many are specified by a name that is onomatopoetic, often reduplicated. Birds are traditionally very important in the belief system, in tales, and as good or bad omens, and a number are eaten, though as of 2008, the preferred wild food birds had become very scarce. Are also the source of sport for young boys with slinghots.
  • Léxica:
    Also "singsak."
