A handy beginner s guide, this textbook introduces the various stages of linguistic
fieldwork, from the preparation ofthe work to the presentation ofthe results.
Drawing on over forty years of fieldwork experience between them, in over two
dozen languages, the authors pack the book with examples and anecdotes from
theirexperiences, and include practical exercises for students to test what they
have learnt. Independent of any particular perspective, the methods can be
applied to a wide range of fieldwork settings, for projects with very different
theoretical backgrounds, and without the need to travel too far. The book covers
traditional fieldwork such as language description and documentation, as well
as less typical methods, including language contact and quantitative studies
with experiments orquestionnaires.
•
Textboxes throughout provide lively anecdotes from the authors and
others fieldwork experiences
•
Includes useful exercises and ways oftrying out fieldwork methods
whereverthe student happens to be based
•
Gives practical help on presenting fieldwork results
•
An accompanying website includes answer keys to the exercises and
a sound record ing for students to analyse real-life data
