Hewramî (ISO 639-3 hac) belongs to the Gorani language cluster of the Iranian languages (Indo-European: Iranian: Central Iranian: Northwestern Iranian: (Adharic:) Gorani: Hewramî).The texts in this corpus are local anecdotes, folktales, biographies, process narratives, and oral accounts of the history of the region. The recordings were made by Masoud Mohammadirad in Hewraman in 2022. Overall, there are five speakers in this corpus, four of whom are male and one female. The speakers were all above 60 at the time of recording.Each text is divided into numbered annotation units, usually corresponding to an intonation unit. To the left of each annotation unit, there is a code representing the initials of the text title, followed by a number, indicating the sentence/ clause number within the tale. For instance, ZB.20 corresponds to sentence number 20 in the ZB text. To the right of each annotation unit, the starting point of each annotation unit in the audio file is indicated in minutes: seconds.
