Languages Conference, and the Hokan-Penutian Languages Conference.

other, and facilitate contacts between academic linguists and communities
that speak endangered languages.



In addition, on June 21st, NILI’s Summer Institute and the UO’s Department
of Linguistics Infield will begin. This will consist of two weeks of classes
and workshops offering community members, language activists and linguists
training on a wide range of issues related to language preservation,
maintenance and revitalization, linguistic fieldwork and documentation,
followed by InField’s four weeks of intensive field methods courses.
