Title | Workshop on the Structure and Constituency of the Languages of the Americas |
Body | From http://www.uleth.ca/conferences/wscla12 WSCLA 12: Workshop on the Structure and Constituency of the Languages of the Americas March 30th - April 1st 2007 University of Lethbridge Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada The central objective of this workshop is to bring together linguists who are engaged in research on the formal study of the Aboriginal languages of the Americas in order to exchange ideas across theories, language families, generations of scholars, and, importantly, across the academic and non-academic communities who are involved in language maintenance and revitalization. Following the tradition of this workshop, we dedicate the final day to a discussion of our practices in linking our research to work being done on language preservation and revitalization. In keeping with our theme, the discussion will relate to the interface between the goals of academic linguistic work and First Nations languages and linguistic work. Speakers on this topic will include Arok Wolvengrey, First Nations University, and Ryan Heavyhead, Red Crow Community College. Contributions in this area are also invited.
