Summer 2023 Fieldwork by the Numbers

During June and July of 2023, we (Olivia and I) did fieldwork on Cua, an endangered central Khoisan language spoken in southeastern Botswana. We did the fieldwork in Gaborone (one week) and Diphuduhudu (one month). The goals were to finish a rough draft of the grammatical sketch, bring the number of lexical entries up to at least 1,000, and to continue working on oral texts. We were successful in these goals.
