<p>Aloha all,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Sitting in the OPDD project office with Catherine Rudin.</p>
<p>We are brainstorming the next steps in the future of the Omaha and Ponca Digital Dictionary project.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>We are contemplating applying for one or more smaller grants targeting work on 1) field work/field checking the ~15k lexemes in JOD's slip file, and 2) performing morphological analysis on the entries.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>This is a preliminary call for participants in this work.<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>We are looking for some help especially on Goal #2.<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Does anyone on the list know of a graduate student in linguistics looking for a fantastic dissertation opportunity? Knowledge of Siouan languages would be a plus.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>We would want to connect with interested candidates and have the ability to write him/her into the grant application.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Please circulate this inquiry to your students and encourage them to contact me and Co-PI Catherine.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p><br>
