Superpleased our team have all submitted their TISLR14 abstracts well in time! Good luck to those still juggling with the deadline!

The (extended) #TISLR14 submission deadline is quickly approaching! ELISA will be submitting abstracts about argument structure and repair sequences in Balinese homesign and Kata Kolok

The ELISA team are very excited to see the body of work on Kata Kolok grow! @hlutzenberger @PaulaFikkert @signrr glossa-journal.org/article/id/588…

With the semi-lockdown lifted @Satyawati_P is finally able to return to the field to record more data from the (home)signers - and make us all jealous with the views from the back of a motorcycle!

Over a year after the project started, last week we had a first in person meeting with the Dutch side of the project members, and yesterday even a second one (photo)! @danielle_naeg @DoorSpruijt
