Workshop on language documentation and language description 30 September-1 October 2008 Uppsala University
The workshop is being organized as part of the 23rd Scandinavian Conference of Linguistics (1-3 October 2008).
The workshop has two goals. First, to discuss the recent advances in Language Documentation - what it implies, how is it different from traditional language description, how technological resources can be a tool in documenting lesser-known languages. Second, to create a forum in Scandinavia for those who are working on endangered and lesser-known languages.
