    [abstract] => In every human community, oral traditions, customs, and practices serve as living repositories of collective memory, passed down from one generation to the next by word of mouth. The English term culture derives from the Latin colere, “to cultivate” or “to worship,” and implies processes of refinement, adaptation, and transmission. Among the Borok people, however, there is no separate word for “culture” and “tradition.” Instead, they use the phrase “tongmwng chamwng”—literally “way of living” or “way of consuming”—to encompass both the dynamic practices and inherited traditions that shape their daily lives. As modernization, Western influence, and proselytization have begun to erode many of these practices, there is an urgent need to document tongmwng chamwng before it is irrevocably altered or lost. This paper therefore seeks to explore and record the distinctive cultural rituals, ceremonies, and oral narratives of the Borok people, both to preserve them for future scholarship and to honor their continuing vitality.
