Abstract
In May 1990 in the Southwest Indian Ocean island of Mauritius, we recorded a twoperson performance of the tale The Animal Languages (AT 670) in the Bhojpuri language, which is spoken by about one-quarter of the Mauritian population.We present an English translation of most of the performance, with brief comments. It shows a friendly rivalry between two performers, who also give information about occasions for storytelling in their village past.
