Resources

This page will be for resources related to language study, research groups, networks, and funding opportunities. It currently consists of the list from the old website. It will be updated with new sections and new information. For outdated links, Google the titles and they should be available if still online.

This will be a portal for various language, research, historical, and other links here to benefit students, scholars, and others who might be interested. Please be patient as the list is developed. Note that things will be divided based on content and not language of the target source (though notes will be made).
