Bininj Gunwok Lexicography Project

该项目将通过词典编纂对土著语言的维护和文件编制作出贡献。在最初的200种左右的土著语言中，只有大约20种仍然存在。Bininj Gunwok就是其中一种语言。澳大利亚语言的词典很少，对于像Bininj Gunwok这样的语言，语言学家将其归类为非帕玛-尼扬干语，只有少数几本词典可用。由此产生的Bininj Gunwok词典和文化百科全书将应用于卡卡杜国家公园和阿纳姆西部的教育、土著健康、社区发展、土地管理和环境科学，以及跨文化交流的应用。

This project will make a contribution to Aboriginal language maintenance and documentation via lexicography. Only about 20 of the original 200 or so Aboriginal languages remain viable. Bininj Gunwok is one of these languages. Very few dictionaries exist for Australian languages and for those languages such as Bininj Gunwok which linguists class as 'non-Pama-Nyungan', only a handful of dictionaries are available. The resulting Bininj Gunwok dictionary and cultural encyclopaedia will have applications for education, Aboriginal health, community development, land management and environmental science in Kakadu National Park and western Arnhem Land as well as applications for cross-cultural communication.
