Projektbeschreibung der*des Nominierenden
| Professor Rice is well known internationally for her outstanding research in theoretical linguistics, especially concerning the structure and properties of sound systems, as well as for her work in Athabaskan linguistics, a grammatically highly complex language family.
Professor Rice has spent the last three decades studying the Dené (Slavey) language of Canada's Northwest Territories, producing an in-depth dictionary of one Dené dialect as well as a grammar that has served as a model for grammars of many other languages. During her stay in Germany, she continues her analysis of the grammar of Aboriginal languages, with a focus on aspectual marking. |
