In June 2024, there was another trip to the Interior for a few lab members who couldn’t make the spring trip.
First, we stopped in Lytton, BC to see speaker Bev Phillips. We got to visit together, record a story, and do some targeted elicitation (demonstratives! embedded questions! evidentials!).
As usual, we also headed to Merritt, BC, to see speakers C̓úʔsinek Marty Aspinall and Kʷaɬtəzétkʷu Bernice Garcia. This marks our first elicitation session in a sushi restaurant.
Thanks everyone — until next time!
