All,<br><br>I have been asked by Prof. Christine Schreyer (see below) who<br>is doing a survey on people learning the constructed Na'vi language (featured in the movie "Avatar") if I would permit her to submit a survey to the members of our list. If you agree, the survey would go out to all, but nobody would be required to respond. You can see what the survey looks like by clicking on the link in her message to me, attached below.<br>
<br>Please let <b>me</b> know whether you agree to be surveyed.<br><br>Thanks,<br><br>HS<br><br><br>---------- Forwarded message ----------<br>From: Schreyer, Christine <<a href="mailto:Christine.Schreyer@ubc.ca">Christine.Schreyer@ubc.ca</a>><br>

<br>Hello, my name is Christine Schreyer and I am an assistant professor of Anthropology at UBC (Okanagan campus). Recently, I have become intrigued by the large numbers of people who are learning the Na’vi language around the world and I would like to learn more about who these learners are, why they are interested in learning Na’vi, how they are learning it, and how they think the Na’vi language will develop over the next few years.<br>
<br>I have compiled an on-line survey at: <a href="https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/NAVI">https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/NAVI</a> and would like to use your listserv to advertise the survey so that anyone who is interested can participate in the research. Do you have any objection to this?<br>
<br>Thank you for your consideration. I look forward to hearing from you.<br><br>Sincerely,<br>Christine Schreyer<br><br>Dr. Christine Schreyer<br>Assistant Professor - Anthropology Programme<br>Community, Culture and Global Studies<br>
