Ellen Woolford in Brazil

Ellen Woolford has just returned from Belo Horizonte, Brazil where she gave a week long course in connection with a workshop on Ergativity and Case Theory at UFMG, Oct 20-24. She had the opportunity to consult with graduate students working on five different indigenous languages of Brazil, and to participate in elicitation sessions with a native speaker of Terena (an Arawakan language). There are plans for an ongoing collaboration with Fábio Bonfim Duarte, faculty at UFMG, coordinator of a project on the indigenous languages of Brazil.
