2013 fieldwork season

A new fieldwork season is just about to begin for me as I head to Honduras for the second time as part of my PhD research on the Garifuna language.

So many questions, both grammar related and methodological, are running around in my head (and cutting in front of each other in the line because they all want to be dealt with first). I would have liked to include a sample of these questions here, but they are still so disorderly and vague (and completely rude) that I cannot possibly know where to begin - I will get back to you on this crucial matter. 

The other important matter which is on my mind right now is whether I will find that the same people I worked with last are available to work with me once again. Although I do plan to expand somewhat the group of Garifuna speakers to consult this time to enhance representativity in terms of age, gender, occupation etc.

More on these matters and more when I have been at it for a little while...
