Credit: 3 OR 4 hours.

Hands-on (learn-by-doing) practical course in elicitation of linguistic data, and theoretical analysis of that data, from an unfamiliar language. Students will elicit, record, and transcribe data collected in group interviews. The class as a whole will work on a language archive: (i) recordings collected throughout the semester and their transcriptions, (ii) a dictionary with vocabulary translated into English, (iii) the final projects. This course provides advanced undergraduate students with the opportunity to integrate their previous training with this practical experience. Class focus will depend on the experience students have with phonology, phonetics, morphology, syntax, and semantics.

3 undergraduate hours. 4 graduate hours. May be repeated in separate semesters for up to 6 undergraduate hours or 8 graduate hours, if topics vary or if a new language is in the focus of investigation. Prerequisite: LING 301 and LING 302 or LING 401.
