Impact of Language Documentation. 330 $aThis book offers the latest insights on language documentation, a reborn, refashioned, and reenergized subfield of linguistics motivated by the urgent task of creating a record of the world?s fast disappearing languages. Language documentation provides data to challenge and improve existing linguistic theory. In addition, because it requires input from various fields to be comprehensive, language documentation serves to build bridges between linguistics and other disciplines. Language documentation also provides resources for communities interested in language and culture preservation, language maintenance, and language revitalization. This book informs, evokes interest, and encourages involvement at all levels. . 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in linguistics.$x2197-0017 606 $aLinguistic minorities 606 $aLanguage policy 606 $aAnthropological linguistics 606 $aComparative linguistics 606 $aLanguage Policy and Planning 606 $aLinguistic Anthropology 606 $aComparative Linguistics 615 0$aLinguistic minorities. 615 0$aLanguage policy. 615 0$aAnthropological linguistics. 615 0$aComparative linguistics. 615 14$aLanguage Policy and Planning. 615 24$aLinguistic Anthropology. 615 24$aComparative Linguistics. 676 $a305.7 700 $aChelliah$b Shobhana L.$01067025 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910484104303321 996 $aWhy language documentation matters$92854484 997 $aUNINA
