Dear all,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Michael Ewing has a terrific paper on first and second person reference in Indonesian, titled "Localizing Person Reference Among Indonesian Youth." Ewing shows that colloquial varieties of Indonesian have an open system of self-reference that hip young
people (as well as unhip and not so young people, I'm sure) use to position themselves socially. You can find the paper in this collection: <a href="https://www.tilburguniversity.edu/upload/1ade6aa9-8b51-43a1-9efc-b7290a7a17bd_TPCS_162_Special%20Issue.pdf" target="_blank" style="font-size: 12pt;">https://www.tilburguniversity.edu/upload/1ade6aa9-8b51-43a1-9efc-b7290a7a17bd_TPCS_162_Special%20Issue.pdf</a></div>

<div>Hello all,<br>
</div>
I had replied to Cyndi directly to her email, but, given the interest, I'm sharing this with all of you:<br>
<br>
I worked on the Vietnamese person-reference system in the context of workplace discourse in a California circuit board manufacturing plant. Attached are a few references; I published an ethnography in 2013 that offers in detail the work I did with the company
over several years. I also suggest a reference by Luong, which I relied on heavily as I started my work. Here's one sample of data from Luong, which got me going, and which I cited in my book:<br>

Hello all. I am writing a piece talking about the use of pronouns in self-representation and I wanted to ask if people are aware of languages besides Japanese which offer speakers a choice of more than one option for singular, first-person pronouns (based
on things like gender, situational formality etc). If you are, I would appreciate a brief grammatical outline of the system and/or direction to an appropriate reference work. You can contact me directly off the list at:
