Fieldwork & languages of interest

I do quite a bit of fieldwork, some of it not necessarily in the field, and I'm always keen to collect some new data on new languages.  I've listed below some of the languages I'm most interested in at the moment; if you happen to speak any of them and wouldn't mind recording some data in the Grahamstown area, please send me an email!
