Much of my research focuses on documenting and describing sign languages of the Pacific. Bettering our understanding of sign languages has significant potential to contribute to linguistics generally. It is also important that we aim to work with all interested members of a community, regardless of hearing status. Because sign language research and language documentation are both relatively new within the field of linguistics, there are still many sign languages which are unreported and likely to be endangered. Below, I have created a form to report a sign language you believe may be currently unreported. 

​

If you believe you have recorded a sign language which is currently unreported, please fill out this form or send me an email through the contact page. 

​

Thank you!
