基本説明
Includes a definition of what it means to 'document a language', overviews on fieldwork ethics and practicalities and data processing, discussions of how to compile a language documentation from anthropological and linguistic points of view as well as long-term perspectives of and for language documentations.
Full Description
Language documentation is a rapidly emerging new field in linguistics which is concerned with the methods, tools and theoretical underpinnings for compiling a representative and lasting multipurpose record of a natural language. This volume presents in-depth introductions to major aspects of language documentation, including overviews on fieldwork ethics and data processing, guidelines for the basic annotation of digitally-stored multimedia corpora and a discussion on how to build and maintain a language archive. It combines theoretical and practical considerations and makes specific suggestions for the most common problems encountered in language documentation.
