Human Language Dynamics (Bowern Lab) Dataverse

Human Language Dynamics (Bowern Lab)

This dataverse contains research materials, publications, corpora, datasets and other compilations related to research in Claire Bowern's Human Language Dynamics research group. We work broadly on language change and language documentation, especially (though not exclusively) with indigenous Australian communities.
