Abstract
These assignments provide opportunities for students to learn and explore a few key concepts central to language documentation and description with real primary language documentation data from a 1977-1984 project studying lexical and morphosyntactic variation across the many Indigenous Mixtec (Otomanguean; Mexico) languages. Students will consider matters of orthography, dialectology, and language variation, and may be able to contribute to a volunteer effort to make digital transcriptions of these survey documents.
