Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

In this field methods course, course participants will be given the opportunity to learn how to discover and analyze the core grammatical structure (phonology, morphology, syntax, and semantics) of an Africa language. The language in question is the Dagaare language of West Africa (Ghana, Burkina Faso, Cote d’Ivoire), but data from other related Mabia (Gur) languages will also be presented. This is not a proficiency course, though course participants who want to learn how to speak it will have the opportunity to do so.
