Grinding songs are called besuva pada in Kannada. Rural women sing various three-line songs called tripadi while they grind. The tripadi is a meter that is common in Kannada literature, and has been popular since 700AD. When singing, performers repeat the second line, making it a four-line sangathy, another popular meter in Kannada. These songs cover various themes, including god, earth, motherly love, and children.

Tales are an important genre of the oral prose literature of the Mongolians. Tales typically begin with the phrase “Once upon a time, in such-and-such a place, in such-and-such a country.” Mongolian tales are symbolic. The most frequent ending is “and they lived happily ever after.” The legends are a popular genre of oral prose literature. The real-life legends are always complementary expressions of historical events within folk literature. Historical facts are usually adorned with fanciful magic and metaphoric devices to later become historical legends. Among the restored and digitised data, the tales take up the most recording hours. Within the framework of the project, over two hundred hours of tales and almost fourteen hours of legends were restored and digitised.
