Lamkang Lexical Database and Online Dictionary (LMK)

兰康是印度曼尼普尔邦使用的大约30种藏缅少数民族语言之一。澜沧江和所有与其关系最密切的语言由于通婚而濒临灭绝，这阻止了代际传播。该项目将创建一个可免费下载的Lamkang词汇数据库和在线词典，除了对说话者有明显的好处(例如，拼写标准化)外，还将有助于语言界更好地了解Lamkang在其地区上下文中的地位、它的遗传关系和它的类型联系。例如，与其他东北印度藏缅语相比，澜沧语的词法复杂性是惊人的，后者往往具有一般的词法复杂性。虽然相关语言有后缀或前缀协议标记，但Lamkang结合了前缀和后缀协议形态。从词法的发展来看，澜沧语显然有一个有趣的故事要讲。

Lamkang is one of approximately 30 Tibeto-Burman minority languages spoken in Manipur State, India. Lamkang and all of the languages most closely related to it are endangered due to intermarriage which prevents inter-generational transmission. This project will create a free downloadable lexical database and online dictionary of Lamkang which, in addition to its obvious benefits to speakers (for example, standardization of orthography), will be useful to the linguistic community in fostering a better understanding of the position of Lamkang in its areal context, its genetic relationships, and its typological connections. For example, the morphological complexity of Lamkang is striking when compared to other Northeast Indian Tibeto-Burman languages which tend to be of average morphological complexity. While related languages have either suffixal or prefixal agreement markers, Lamkang combines prefixal and suffixal agreement morphologies. The Lamkang language clearly has an interesting story to tell in terms of its morphological development.
