This project aims at the reconstruction of the shared vocabulary of the Huon Peninsula languages and at establishing the sound correspondences between these 21 languages. Furthermore, three studies building on the existing comparative morphology are planned: A comparative study of the benefactive constructions and their relationship to the purposive case. A diachronic study of the causative compounds of the Huon Tip languages and their comparison with verbs with instrumental prefixes in Native North American languages. And a study of the effects of contact with neighboring Austronesian languages on the grammar of the Huon Peninsula language Kovai.

该项目旨在重建休恩半岛语言的共同词汇，并在这21种语言之间建立语音对应。此外，本文还计划在现有的比较形态学基础上进行三项研究：一项是对有益结构及其与目的性格的关系的比较研究。休恩蒂普语言使役复合词的历时研究及其与北美土著语言中工具前缀动词的比较。以及与邻近的南岛语族接触对休恩半岛语言科瓦伊语法的影响的研究。
