1.在夏季进行了大约两个月的语言实地研究。两名调查员Ives Goddard和Michael Krauss于11月应邀到京都大学。在实地，每个调查员都致力于他/她各自的语言(见下文第2至5段)，补充过去两年获得的信息，并获得关于这种语言的新方面的数据，以完成详细的描述性语法。Goddard和Krauss在研讨会上作了演讲，所有调查人员都参加了讲座。在计划于1998年4月出版的研究报告的出版计划中征求了他们的意见，该报告将遵循1997年6月出版的第一卷(如下所示)。2.爱斯基摩-阿留特语言：首席研究员致力于A1askan Yupik、Oshima on Aleut词法和Nagai(研究合作者)关于西伯利亚Yupik音系学的形态句法问题。3.印度语言：Hori、Watanabe(调查人员)、Sasama、Nakayama和Ichihashi(合作者)与首席调查员密切沟通，研究各自语言的词法(和句法)。4.西伯利亚语言：Endo和Kazama(调查人员)在Kazamaman的指导下对尤卡吉尔和通古斯语的词法(和句法)进行了初步研究。5.澳大利亚人：Sakiyama解释了KAI中声调的起源是双音节词素的单音化。
