Description: Jawoyn (Djauan, ISO-639: djn) is an endangered Gunwinyguan language spoken in northern Australia. It has only three remaining speakers. This collection consists of an extensive corpus of material on Jawoyn. There will be texts, a draft dictionary, and portions of a basic, comprehensive grammar which may initially focus on specific phonetic, phonological and morphological problems. This collection adds to the corpus of materials available for typological and comparative work, and undoubtedly allow advances in plausible reconstruction among some of the evidently closely related Gunwinyguan languages. It is hoped that the materials made available can be used by other Australianists, as well as the community of people from which the information emanates.
