What are some of the questions that can be asked in an interview with a non-genetic heir?

One is the situation of the inheritance genealogy. Ask the inheritor to worship teacher situation, the teacher is what kind of, how many brothers and sisters in the same school, how many now adhere to the situation? Take apprentice situation, with how many apprentices, through what form to find the apprentice, is not the loss of the situation. Whether the children are followed by someone to learn the skills, and so on.

The second is the use of manufactured goods. Was it used for actual production or as a museum piece? Or as exhibits in tourist spots, etc. What is the amount of production, the amount of work per person, and so on.

Third, the production of skills. Inheritors master what skills, what are the characteristics, and the difference with other skills. Historical origin, survival status, etc.

The intangible cultural heritage is mainly passed on orally and by heart, which is determined by the historical development of human society. Intangible cultural heritage is oral culture, that is to say, its basic inheritance method is oral teaching, through oral teaching in a certain range of groups (ethnic groups, communities, settlements) in the dissemination and inheritance, continuous, from generation to generation.

In the long process of oral and heart-to-heart transmission and intergenerational transmission, once a phenomenon of intangible cultural heritage is formed, for example, once the "mother topic" is formed, it will be constantly processed and pondered by people in the process of inheritance and development and constantly superimposed with new factors, and of course, some of them will be lost in the process of transmission due to various reasons. Of course, in the process of transmission, some of them will be interrupted due to various reasons and thus disappear into obscurity.
