Dear Listmembers,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I was wondering whether anyone might have up-to-date information (i.e. from a recent-ish study) concerning the relative stability of demonstratives (referential modifiers and/or pronouns), both in terms of language-internal replacement by a lexeme and
 in terms of language-external replacement by a loanword of the same category (though I'm more interested in the first one). </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks in advance for any assistance,</div>
<div>Mark</div>
<div>
