Amanda Bohnert studies the sound systems and grammar of underdocumented languages, focusing on Tibeto-Burman languages spoken in South Asia such as Lutuv, Hakha Lai, and Mizo. Much of the work uses acoustic and ultrasound methods to measure how vowels and consonants are produced, alongside documentation projects like word lists (Swadesh lists) and analyses of verb grammar. This combines experimental phonetics (the physical study of speech sounds) with descriptive fieldwork on languages that have limited prior documentation.
