Fw: [FUNKNET] sociolinguistic studies on like

[Ad Foolen]

Clancy,

Here are two recent sociolinguistic studies on 'like':

Jennifer Dailey-O'Cain (2000) The sociolinguistic  distribution of and
attitutes toward focuser  'like' and' quotative 'like'. Journal of
Sociolinguistics 4:1, 60-80.
Joanne Winter (2002) Discourse quotatives in Australian English: Adolescents
performing voices. Australian Journal of Linguistics 22:1, 5-21.

In the References of these papers, there is more to find, back till 1990,
when the classical study of Carl Blyth et al. (1990) appeared in American
Speech 65.
