  abstract  = {According to Aikhenvald (2007:5), descriptive linguistics or linguistic fieldwork "ideally involves observing the language as it is used, becoming a member of the community, and often being adopted into the kinship system". Descriptive linguistics therefore differs from theoretical linguistics in that while the former seeks to describe natural languages as they are used, the latter, other than describing, attempts to give explanations on how or why language phenomena behave in certain ways. Thus, I will abstract away from any preconceived ideas on how sentences ought to be in Awing and take the linguist/reader through focus and interrogative constructions to get a feeling of how the Awing people interact verbally.},
