The subject of this work is the ritual speech custom of the Rongga tribe, who inhabit the larger area of Manggarai regency in the eastern part of Flores island, situated in the Small Sunda archipelago (Indonesia). This community uses the local Rongga language in their daily communication, in schools and in ritual ceremonies. Due to the complexity and the large variety of the above indicated issues, the anthropological linguistic observations are used solely to analyze discourses of birth ritual (kapu Ana) which is one of several rituals connected to domestic living (mbo/mbaru), i.e. birth, severe illness, nightmares, greeting guests etc. Members of the Rongga community also practice rituals associated with the traditions of the house (sa'o), such as: the rituals associated with wedding, death, with the cultivation of the land (uma), such as: cutting trees, cleaning the field, planting seeds of maize and rice, or harvesting. Rongga people also conduct some rituals associated with the village (nua), such as; moving the stones that mark the border of fields, cutting big trees and others.
