- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant, awarded under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program, supports the documentation, analysis, and revitalization of a language that has undergone significant grammatical change due to language contact and generational shifts. Grounded in theories of language contact, creole formation, and second language acquisition, the project aims to contribute to the understanding of how languages evolve over time. The...
- This $261,181 Project Grant award, provided by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Integrative Activities program (CFDA 47.083), will fund a multi-year study by the University of Nevada, Reno to analyze the determinants and processes that shape language restoration and development efforts within communities. The research will utilize linguistic analyses, observation, interviews, participatory methods, and digital network analysis to track how language is introduced and emerges as a mode of...
- This Project Grant award for $686,700 was issued by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Office of International Science and Engineering (CFDA 47.079) program to advance documentary and theoretical linguistics through the study of Creole languages. The five-year project, which commenced on July 1, 2025, will annually enable six U.S. undergraduate and graduate students to conduct five-week fieldwork in Creole-speaking countries, employing cutting-edge techniques in language documentation,...
- This $354,310 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) supports a 5-year research project to develop the first digital resource charting the phonological structures of an extensively used yet underexplored form of spoken language. The project, titled "CAREER: Building a Phonological Atlas of a Multi-Region Language Variety," will conduct linguistic interviews with 160 participants across different...
- This $449,275 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports research to advance the scientific understanding of human language processing and change. The project, led by the University of California, Davis (UC Davis), combines expertise from linguistics, psychology, and computational approaches to investigate how language users integrate general language constraints and verb-specific preferences...
- This $139,801 National Science Foundation project grant supports the University of Texas at Austin in documenting an endangered language variety spoken in rural villages. Over a two-year period ending June 2024, the university will interview native speakers to create a grammar of the traditional language and conduct detailed linguistic analysis. This work under the NSF's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) aims to advance understanding of contact-driven linguistic...
- This $285,326 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program funds a 3-year community-driven documentation project focused on critically endangered, rarely studied, and infrequently documented languages. The project aims to produce transcribed and translated narratives in an open-access, permanently archived collection, develop a research-enriched, community-based interactive multimedia learning site, and conduct...
- This two-year, $138,000 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program will support research examining syntactic regulation and adaptation in bidialectal and heritage bilingual speakers. The goal is to better understand the nature and consequences of proficient, multidialectal language experience. Under the sponsorship of Dr. Julie Washington at the University of California, Irvine, the postdoctoral fellow will conduct a neurolinguistic...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program provides $268,067 to support a project titled "Advancing Linguistic Research Through Speech Technologies." The project aims to develop tools and resources, including automatic speech recognition, text-to-speech systems, and educational materials, to bridge the gap between linguistic research and practical language applications. Key activities include...
- This federal Project Grant award of $101,674, awarded by the National Science Foundation's Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program, is being used to build a 60-hour corpus of naturalistic and read speech data for several low-data languages. The goal is to enable phonetics and phonology research, as well as assist in developing speech technologies like artificial intelligence models, in cases where little recorded...
