Yekaterina Ivanovna begins with mini-autobiography, then several stories in her bedroom. She seems practiced in talking about herself and the old days. She is a retired radio presenter and is used to speaking Koryak for audio recording. She speaks the Chawchu Palana dialect, as opposed to the Nymylan Palana. I (depositor) have recorded some of this previously on audio tape. Works in Institute for Advanced Teacher Training, Palana. She was born in a yaranga on the tundra. Also fluent (listening, reading, some writing/speaking) in English and Japanese. Alutor level is elementary.
