Title: | Naming places: on and around Kangaroo Island | Contributor(s): | Nash, Joshua (author) | Publication Date: | 2014 | Handle Link: | https://hdl.handle.net/1959.11/21758 | Abstract: | Placename research or toponymy is a relatively new venture for linguistics. Once restricted to the domains of history, geography, surveying and cartography, placename research has now begun to receive the attention it deserves in Australia, with several conferences, publications and bodies devoted entirely to toponymy. Institutions like the Australian National Placenames Survey and the Committee for Geographical Names of Australasia are dedicated to recording all known Australian names, documenting their pronunciation, history, meaning and map location. | Publication Type: | Journal Article | Source of Publication: | South Australian Geographical Journal, v.112, p. 69-73 | Publisher: | Royal Geographical Society of South Australia | Place of Publication: | Australia | ISSN: | 1030-0481 | Fields of Research (FoR) 2008: | 160403 Social and Cultural Geography 200408 Linguistic Structures (incl.
