1: 0:00:00 (pigs and animals go in the garden and wreck the food so we build fences. We put posts, sticks a base and we tie it with rope. He names some of the ropes. Then we plant, he lists some foods. The food will stay good and not get wrecked) 2: 0:01:49 (women put sticks and tie them. We men put the sticks and the base and we build it. My fathers did it like this. Women cut the bushes and burn the cuttings, men cut trees and build fences.) 3: 0:03:00 (Some gardens have fences and some are naked. If the edge of a garden is a cliff we don't need to put a fence. Sometimes we plant yams without a fence) 4: 0:04:17 (it'll be ok, sometimes it'll be bad. If a pig gets in it will eat the food) 5: 0:05:24 (ulugunim agann kol, tapeltapel, mak lugim olomoo, kamda, sili kot) 6: 0:05:46 (a long time, until the food is harvested) 7: 0:06:06 (we fix the holes. If it gets in again we kill the pig) 8: 0:06:25 (they build fences. They have lots of pigs and if one gets in it'll eat the food)

1: 0:00:00 (the pigs will get in and eat the food. When my ancestors where around the wild pigs at the food so they put fences. Today there aren't wild pigs, but our pigs are around) 2: 0:02:00 (it's men's work, cutting bushes is women's work. Men cut bushes now and women build fences now, they get the sticks and some do the building working with the men. They don't do the bulk of the work though, just one one) 3: 0:02:47 (some have fences and some don't, some have a few fences. If there are pigs around they go inside) 4: 0:03:16 (if there is no fence and a pig goes near the food will get wrecked, if the pigs are far away it'll be fine) 5: 0:04:03 (simonn lugunim, agann kol, tapeltapel we'll get them, tie the fence, it'll stay for a long time and we'll eat food) 6: 0:04:25 (it breaks quickly, 1 year or so the sticks rot and it falls over and pigs get over it) 7: 0:04:49 (if a pig gets in we fix the holes in the fence if we don't want it to eat all the food. We might have to rebuild a whole part of the fence. If we just happen to be walking past we might just scare the pig out.) 8: 0:05:45 (they make fences with wire)
