Description: 
Phonetics and Phonology can be taught in university in a very theoretical way. This chapter addresses the practical issues that arise when collecting phonological data on a field trip. It includes advice on investigating tone, recording devices, and methods of retaining data. The chapter can apply to any such situation but it focuses mainly on situations where there may be no technicians to hand and all equipment must be portable.
