Abstract
German
German
Ein Mann entrindet einen dünnen Ast und schnitzt ihn zu einem Bogenstab. Dann schabt und löst er mit einem flachen Bambusmesser die inneren Fasern eines Bromelia-Blattes frei, dreht daraus eine dünne Saite und befestigt sie am Bogenstab. Beim Spiel hält er ein Bogenende in den Mund und zupft mit einem Finger die Saite.

A man makes the bow and first he has to pick out in the forest a thin branch from an unspecified tree to act as the bow stave. He makes the bow string from the Bromelia leaf by first separating the inner fiber with a bamboo stick. The Bromelia strands he twists over to make a thin string. He then ties the twisted string to the stave and begin to play by holding one end of the bow in his mouth and touching the string with one finger.
