I shall be attending a workshop, along with eleven other experts, on creating a universal writing system for Circassian and other Caucasian languages, 10 - 11 April, Istanbul.  It is sponsored by Merkur, a travel company owned by a Circassian.

On Friday evening I shall give a presentation to the Istanbul Khase. I shall discuss my career  and my current work compiling a reader in North West Caucasian languages.  I shall also read a tale in Ubykh that has been analyzed grammatically, so that those in attendance may follow along.
