<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> Dear
colleagues,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'd be really thankful if anybody could send me
their articles on distances between languages. I've written an article on
the distances between Turkic and Mongol languages. I can send it to those
interested. I wish I knew recent papers on genetic and
linguistic distances. Unfortunately, I'm not<BR>familiar with the work of
Cavalli-Sforza and others that finds a <BR>correspondence of genetic and
linguistic distance. I failed to find the e-mail address of Cavalli-Storza and
the others who research linguistic distances. Perhaps my paper <BR>will
interest you with respect to that area of research. I've got no means to read
web site. What I need is the e-mail addresses. A small group of Novosibirsk
linguists has built a sort of corpora of Indo-European, Finno-Ugric, Turkic,
Paleo-Asiatic, Tungus-Manchurian and other world languages. Now we've got 218
languages, many of them are indangered. We can't publish our results on
the linguistical distances since we failed to find the linguistic journals
interested in our results. So, perhaps, we could send our articles to those
interested? Looking forward to hearing from you soon to <A
href="mailto:yutamb@hotmail.com">yutamb@hotmail.com</A> <BR>We are also looking
forward to any sort of co-operation. Best wishes, Yuri
Tambovtsev, Novosibirsk, Russia</FONT></DIV></FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
