Internet Database for Minority Languages of Burma (Myanmar)The SOAS Wa Dictionary Project will not only produce one or more editions of a Wa-Burmese-Chinese-English print dictionary, but also, since it will be centred on a corpus-based database and Internet resource, it will serve as a template suitable for corpus-driven lexicography and linguistic research on other languages spoken in Burma/Myanmar, besides Wa, after the life of the project. As this Myanmar minority language database matures, details about its organisation and use will be posted here.

The Wa Dictionary Project is funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council and hosted at the School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London.
