<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">Endangered
Language Fund Offers Support for Linguistics  Work<br>
<br>
Deadline: April 20, 2009<br>
<br>
The Endangered Language Fund ( _<a href="http://endangeredlanguagefund.org/_" target="_blank">http://endangeredlanguagefund.org/_</a> <br>
(<a href="http://endangeredlanguagefund.org/" target="_blank">http://endangeredlanguagefund.org/</a>)
  )<br>
provides grants for endangered language maintenance and  linguis-<br>
tic field work. The work most likely to be funded is that  which<br>
serves both the native community and the field of linguistics.<br>
Work  which has immediate applicability to one group and more<br>
distant application  to the other will also be considered. Pro-<br>
posals can originate in any  country. The language involved must<br>
be in danger of disappearing within a  generation or two. Special<br>
consideration will be given to projects that  involve children.<br>
<br>
Eligible expenses include consultant fees, tapes,  films, travel,<br>
etc. Organizational overhead is not supported. Grants are  normal-<br>
ly for a one-year period. Grants in this round are expected to <br>
be  for less than $4,000 each, and to average approximately $2,000  <br>
each.<br>
<br>
