Language Documentation at Carleton
Language documentation efforts are underway at Carleton. Faculty members in the field of Linguistics are currently undertaking research in many corners of the world.
“The aim of a language documentation is to provide a comprehensive record of the linguistic practices characteristic of a given speech community.”
