First Week of Class for LING 6510

Well, I signed up for a class on Language Structures in my linguistics program this semester. As happens in this program, the class isn't actually on "Language" structures, per se, because the professor has tweaked the curriculum to play to his current research.

The class is on the language structure of Lakota.

This was both exciting and disapointing to me. Learning about Lakota gets me all excited as a linguist. But the theory of language structure was really what I was after, because it was more pertinent to my career interests.
