Einar Ingvald Haugen (; April 19, 1906 - June 20, 1994) was an American linguist, author and Professor at University of Wisconsin–Madison and Harvard University. ==Biography== Haugen was born in Sioux City, Iowa to Norwegians from the town of Oppdal in Norway. When he was a young child, the family moved back to Oppdal for a few years, but then returned to the United States. He attended Morningside College in Sioux City but transferred to St. Olaf College to study with Ole Edvart Rølvaag. He earned his B.A. in 1928 and immediately went on to graduate studies in linguistics at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, where he was awarded his Ph.D. in 1931. In 1931 Haugen joined the faculty of the University of Wisconsin–Madison, where he stayed until 1962. He was made Victor S. Thomas Professor of Scandinavian and Linguistics at Harvard University in 1964, and stayed here until his retirement in 1975. Haugen served as president of the Linguistic Society of America, the American Dialect Society, and the Society for the Advancement of Scandinavian Study. Haugen was also a member of the Board of Editors of the Norwegian-American Historical Association. 〔(''Einar Haugen (1906-1994)'' (Lloyd Hustvedt. Swedish-American Historical Society. April 1995, v.46, no.2, pages 141-142) )〕 In 1972 he was awarded an honorary degree, doctor philos. honoris causa, at the Norwegian Institute of Technology, later part of Norwegian University of Science and Technology.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Honorary doctors at NTNU )〕 Haugen is credited for having pioneered the field of sociolinguistics and being a leading scholar within the field of Norwegian-American studies, including Old Norse studies. Perhaps his most important work was ''The Norwegian language in America; A study in bilingual behavior'' (ISBN 0-253-34115-9). In addition to several important works within these fields, he wrote the authoritative work on the dialect of his ancestral home of Oppdal and a book entitled ''The Ecology of Language'', with which he pioneered a new field of linguistics later called Ecolinguistics. Einar Haugen also wrote ''Norwegian American Dictionary/Norsk engelsk ordbok'' (ISBN 0-299-03874-2).〔''Einar Haugen, leading authority on Norwegian culture in US'' (The Boston Globe. Boston, MA.
