A Dictionary of Musey

该项目将编纂一本关于MUSEY的广泛词典，MUSEY是喀麦隆北部和乍得西南部的一种乍得语。该词典将首次全面研究查迪亚语中的马萨语和任何一种语言。MUSEY-English词典将至少有7500个主要词条，每个词条都有词汇和语法信息以及例句。附带的语法草图将提供有关正在学习的语言的附加信息。词典的主要部分将补充英语-MUSEY和法语-MUSEY索引。这本词典将是普通语言学家、普通非洲学者以及乍得湖盆地从事语言学和其他类型研究的学者的宝贵资源。

This project will compile an extensive dictionary of Musey, a Chadic language of northern Cameroon and southwestern Chad. The dictionary will provide the first comprehensive lexical study of the language and of any language within the Masa group of Chadic languages. The Musey-English dictionary will have at least 7500 main entries with lexical and grammatical information as well as illustrative sentences for each entry. An accompanying grammar sketch will provide additional information on this under studied language. The main section of the dictionary will be supplemented by English-Musey and French-Musey indices. The dictionary will be a valuable resource to general linguists, general Africanists, and scholars engaged in linguistic and other types of research in the Lake Chad Basin.
