Have greatly enjoyed my research stay at UVic, meeting wonderful people, having interesting conversations about my project, about languages and linguistics, learning about teaching and learning here, going to classes with kind colleagues who have taken me in.
Undergraduate students seem to struggle with many of the same problems in Canada as in Denmark when it comes to e.g. syntax and phonetics - but ways of dealing with various subjects differ to some degree, just as evaluation procedures do. Interesting discussions about this!
Meeting other Ph.D. and M.A. students has also been a pleasure and an enriching experience. And the enthusiasm with which first-nation languages are being studied, revived, and taught is amazing.
Gave a presentation of my project and some preliminary results at a Linguistics Dept. Colloquium. Great comments and questions from an interested audience, who managed to show up despite very short notice! Greatly appreciated :-)
Will be returning to Denmark in a week - project has progressed with much reading and writing during the past two months!
Many thanks to UVic, Linguistics Dept., and Hossein Nassaji for having me here!
