We are excited to announce the new online linguistics course offered by Prof. Marc van Oostendorp from Leiden University. The course is designed as an introduction for anyone interested in how language works and how it gives insight into the human mind. It features interviews with well-known linguists, such as Noam Chomsky, and speakers of many different languages.

One of our collaborators, the project’s former student assistant, Inge Otto will be taking part in the teaching and moderating activities.

Well done – the course seems very interesting and it will even enable the participants to experience linguistic fieldwork first-hand.
