- Description : Priv.-Doz. Dr. Annette Endruschat is funded to specialize in documentary linguistics by documenting the language and culture of the town of Minde, in the centre of Portugal with a population of 3380. Minderico is only spoken in Minde and not in any of the adjacent villages. It has to be regarded as highly endangered, because the number of (active) speakers of Minderico has decreased considerably to only a few hundred in the last three decades. In the recent past Minderico has become more and more restricted to the use in informal situations and Portuguese has developed into the main language of communication throughout the Minde region. There are also a few passive speakers who are able to understand Minderico but who do not use it actively anymore. With this project, it is intended to emphasize that there are also unknown endangered languages in Europe and that the Iberian region is not as homogeneous as the language policy of Portugal would like us to believe. Moreover, this project expects to give an impulse to the documentation of the linguistic and cultural richness in the Romance world, an area widely neglected in Romance studies. That is why this project is based on an intensive cooperation between Romance linguistics and general linguistics and typology.

- Description : Minderico is an Ibero-Romance language, spoken in Minde, a small town (approximately 900 years old and with a population of 3400) 115 km north from Lisbon and 240 km south from Porto, in Portugal. Minde is essentially an industrial town with an almost monoindustry of textiles and wool artefacts. From the 16th century on, the blankets of Minde became famous all over the country. Due to this popularity, the wool carders and merchants of Minde began to use Minderico in order to protect and defend their products from "intruders" and to earn more profit in their commercialization. In the primary stage of its history, Minderico was used as a secret language. Later, it extended to all social and professional groups in Minde and became the main means of communication in the village. Thus, Minderico is diachronically related to Portuguese, a fact which determined its system and structures that clearly show Ibero-Romance characteristics. But, today, it cannot be considered a dialect or sociolect of Portuguese or other Ibero-Romance language. Minderico developed its own syntactic, morphological and lexical structures, and it is used in all formal and informal communicative situations, in written and spoken form. Furthermore, Minderico developed a written tradition which is normally not typical for a dialect or sociolect. Although words may appear similar to those in other Ibero-Romance languages, they are completely unintelligible to Portuguese or Spanish speakers. Today Minderico risks becoming extinct, more than ever before in its history. The number of (active) speakers has decreased considerably to only a few hundred in the last three decades. There are also passive speakers who are able to understand Minderico but who do not use it actively anymore. All speakers of Minderico are bilingual; they speak Portuguese along with Minderico. While Portuguese is the language of administration and school system, Minderico remains almost restricted to the family. But even in this private sector there is a clear pressure from Portuguese on Minderico. The knowledge of Minderico is not very homogeneous among the inhabitants of Minde. Only the older generation (people older than 65) has full competence in the language; younger adults understand Minderico and are able to speak it, but normally they feel ashamed to do so, mainly because they have not fully acquired competence in Minderico. Moreover, the speech of Minderico adults is characterized by a kind of Portuguese-Minderico code-switching and code-mixing.
