'ICHAPTER8ANYTHING CANHAPPENTHE VERB LEXICON ANDINTERDISCIPLINARYFIELDWORKNICHOLAS EVANS8.1 INTRODUCTION!.The centrality of language in human life means we cannot document any languagewithout understanding all the spheres of knowledge it is used to talk about.Equally, undocumented languages contain too much information to be wastedon linguists alone. As the medium through which the whole fabric of traditionalknowledge about everything in the world is transmitted, the importance of theselanguages stretches out in the direction of many fields of enquiry, from ethnoecology to comparative jurisprudence to deep history to the study of musical and1 I would like to thank all of those who have helped me understand Iwaidja, either as speakers or asfellow outsider-investigators: Kim Akerman, Reuben Arramunika, Linda Barwick, Archie Brown,Bruce Birch, Murray Garde, illyjilly, Rae Kirribuk, Ronald Lamilami, Khaki Marrala, David ('Cookie')Minyimak, Ruth Singer.

NICHOLAS EVANSverbal art. Linguists, then, have a responsibility not just to their own field but to allareas of scholarship concerned with the almost infinite varieties of human creativity, and we abrogate this responsibility if we do not seek to follow our documentation of the languages we study down all these lanes and byways of orallytransmitted lore.But, as we struggle to learn a field language and talk to the people who speak itabout what matters in their lives) we quickly become aware of how narrow are theboundaries of our knowledge. Whether we fail to identify a local plant or animalspecies, can't figure out how to describe special ways of tying up roof thatch, or askdumb questions abont mystifying ethnographic details, we risk foreshortening ourinvestigations becanse---in the words of Ralph Bulmer's Kalam teacher whoexplained why they hadn't bothered to give him the sort of nuanced terminologyfor rocks which they had for plants-'why should we waste our time telling yonsomething you couldn't possibly understand?"One of the appeals of fieldwork is that we get the opportunity to developinterests in many new subjects, from botany throngh ethnography to thatchmaking.' But few linguists reach the point where we are able to really penetrateto the heart of all these fields, and in practice the best way to extend ourdocnmentary coverage is through some form of interdisciplinary fieldwork.The linguist can then work in concert with experts who can pose the rightquestions to engage the deep knowledge that speakers have of particnlar areas.The same Kalam people who had fobbed Bulmer off with a single word,purportedly for all kinds of rock, readily gave his geologist colleague johnChappell a long and nuanced list, because 'your friend's questions showed thathe does know about rocks'.Some form of interdisciplinary collaboration in fieldwork, then, is essential tocoaxing out a full encyclopedic coverage of the fine-grained categorizations of itsculture and environment which any language contains. In this chapter I show howthis can happen in practice, drawing on the efforts myself and a number ofcolleagues to document an Australian Aboriginal language, Iwaidja.To put scientific flesh on the procedural bones of my arg
