Notes

Abstract:
SOAS Sylheti Project: After an invitation from the director of the Surma Centre, Camden, during Endangered Languages Week presentations at SOAS in 2012, the SOAS Sylheti Project was created. For the past three years, SOAS MA linguistics students have participated in this extracurricular project to document Sylheti spoken by users of the Surma Centre. The SOAS Field methods course has also worked with Sylheti speakers to document Sylheti grammar. Besides other sub-projects, the SOAS Sylheti Project is compiling a dictionary for the Sylheti language and launching a dictionary app.
