Narratives and the way of getting intothem: an experience among Cashinahua. The oraltransmission keeps going, still nowadays, as adynamic practise among Cashinhaua people.Some of its linguistics mechanisms show a lexicalaffinity between form and sense: yui ‘to tell stories’,miyui ‘traditional stories (learnt by oraltransmission)’, and grammatical: eska ‘so (referringto what has been learnt)’, and haska ‘so’ (thenarrator assumes what he says). These fourexamples are a sample of how each language withits lexicon categorizes, organizes andconceptualizes not only lexicon, but alsogrammatical organizations.Downloads
