I am creating a reference grammar of Oroha, a critically endangered Austronesian language (7 on the EGIDS scale) spoken fluently by fewer than one hundred people; it is one of the most endangered languages in the Solomon Islands. Four villages on Small Malaita host all the fluent speakers of Oroha, the majority of those speakers are middle-aged or older, there are semi-speakers of Oroha found in other cities such as Auki and Honiara. Oroha has a rich deictic system that is little understood, and a limited range of morphology which leads to TAM being resolved in the language's analytic syntax. Primary investigator: Darren Flavelle
