Abstract

Katika kipengele hiki ninaangalia maswala muhimu ambayo mtafiti anakumbana nayo anapotambulisha mahali lugha mbambali zinatumiwa. Utafiti nilioufanya katika Jamuhuri ya Kidemokrasia ya Congo unatumiwa kama mfano na yale nilioyajifunza yanaelezwa hapa. Ninaeleza wakati gani yafaa kufanya utafiti kama huu na njia zinazofaa katika muktadha tofauti. Ninatoa mapendekezo suluhisho na wakati gani yale mapenekezo yanafaa kutumiwa katika dhana yanayoelekea ujuzi wa matumizi ya lugha. Ninamaliza na tafakari na pia mapendekezo kadhaa kuhusu matokeo ya utafiti huu kwa utekelezaji wa mipango ya elimu mahali yanapatikana lugha nyingi. (Abstract in Swahili [swh], a language of Tanzania and East Africa, translated by Bagamba Araali.)

In this chapter I look at some of the most important issues when conducting language mapping, exemplifying many of the lessons learned in one such project in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). I outline when it is important to do language mapping, and which methodologies are most useful in different contexts. I then discuss various issues and assumptions which can lead to inaccurate data, and propose solutions based, where relevant, on sociolinguistic concepts. I finish with some reflections/recommendations on what implications these findings have for the implementation of effective educational programs in multilingual contexts.
