onekind

Onekind is a British linguistic research project that aims to promote linguistic diversity and documentation of endangered languages. Founded in 2008, the project is a non-profit organization based in Oxford, England. Onekind's primary objective is to create an open-source language resource database that brings together dialects and idioms from around the world, with a focus on endangered and minority languages.

Onekind's methodology involves collaborating with linguists, fieldworkers, and native speakers to collect and analyze language materials. The project employs a collaborative online platform to facilitate data exchange and sharing among researchers and language speakers. This approach enables the development of a comprehensive language resource database that can be accessed and utilized by researchers, language educators, and language learners.

Onekind's work is informative about aspects of langiage ecology, cultural context, and language contact. The project also carries out in-depth linguistic analysis of previously unexplored languages. The project's use of cutting-edge technology for language analysis and documentation is an immense advantage. Additionally, onekind supports linguistic activism, focusing on subjects such as linguistic classification, pre-linguistic signaling, and language acquisition.

Onekind has actively created an off-shore section of its platform for extreme languages especially those spoken beyond humanitarian and policy focus. By utilizing social media and other social networking tools, the project encourages the exchange of ideas, fosters collaboration, and increases public awareness about the importance of linguistic documentation.
