Summary / Abstract (Note) | Today the recording of languages is considered to be comparatively a new branch of linguistics, which is connected with field linguistics, i.e. with the study of languages in their natural habitation sphere. N. F. Katanov may be rightfully named as a field scholar, who professionally approached the recording of languages. The main goal of recording is gathering and accumulation of primary data about poorly explored languages. It is especially now because their number is declining. As A. V. Arhipov notes, activity of a field linguist is aimed at description of 11 language, at direct study of the language phenomena, while various concrete research problems can be resolved. The goal of recording is to gather basic data, which would help to investigate a language hereafter (i.e. to resolve concrete research problems) even if it is impossible to get new data. Texts of different speech genres are fixed (stories, fairy-tales, legends, cases from life, etc.). N. F. Katanov may, therefore, be rightfully named as a true field linguist. |
