濒危语言资料的记录和留存

On the Recording and Preservation of Endangered Language Data

濒危语言资料的调查同一般的语言调查相比有其独特性,这是由濒危语言的特点所决定的。所以,对濒危语言资料的记录会同以往的语料收集不尽相同,其记录的目的是为了全面展示一种语言的真实面貌,长久地保存自然的原始语料,为后代留存一份文化遗产的活化石。

Due to the special features of endangered languages, the investigation of their data has some peculiarities compared with that of other language data. The data of endangered languages are recorded in a somewhat different way in order to fully display the real appearance of a language, preserve the natural and primitive data, and pass on to the later generations a living fossil of cultural heritages.
