My name is Signe Rix Berthelin. I study Linguistics, Social Anthropology and Kiswahili on the final year of my BA at NTNU.
The last term I spent at SOAS where I studied the Structure of Bantu Languages, General Linguistics and how writing came about in Mesopotamia.
My main interests are language documentation and description, and I hope to contribute to the documentation of a Bantu language or a Native North American language in the future. I am especially interested in how to describe meaning, and the Bantu noun class system really fascinates me.
I am native speaker of Danish, and in my sparetime I work as a translator from English and Norwegian into Danish. I find it funny to see semilaritites and differences between Norwegian and Danish, when it comes to expressions and the connotations of the words. I have put Danish data into Typecraft and did my best to annotate properly. I will put out more Danish data continually. Please do no hesitate if you have any questions about the data, or if you would like me to add constructions.
