Digital Linguistic Atlas of Scotland

29.06.2020

"Werkverträge" for student research assistants

The research team undertaking the digitisation of the Linguistic Atlas of Scotland is looking for up to three student research assistants with general linguistic knowledge and an interest in digital resources to work with them on the atlas's database during the coming summer. No special technical knowledge is required, only an open mind for work with digitized data and their format and methods.

The atlas lists and maps the vocabulary for words from traditional domestic life, parts of the body, agricultural farming, livestock farming, insects, the weather, children's games, and such like concepts.
