| Research Abstract |
We have collected extensive data on linguistic features of a great many languages which are significant for the studies of word order and distant genetic relationships among the world's languages. Thus we carried out a project for making a digitized version of linguistic maps by GIS (Geographical Information System), showing the areal distributions of linguistic features of the world's languages. Our digitized maps of the world's languages enable us to incorporate a vast amount of linguistic information into a single system and efficiently make both macroscopic and microscopic examinations of the geographical distributions of linguistic features. We can expect far-reaching effects on various linguistic studies.
