<div class="" style="font-family:Arial;font-size:14px"><p class="">Dear Elad,<br class="">
<br class="">
thank you very much for the very helpful update on your ongoing projects and publications. We have been conducting a sister-project with the focus on loan phonemes in Europe. Our book manuscript is in its (pre-)final stages now so that we are confident to publish it in early 2021. It is a study of phoneme borrowing which takes account of data from 210 European "doculects" (including regional varieties) for the quantitative part plus additionally some dozens of further doculects which are addressed only in the qualitative part of the book. The study is intended as an appetizer for our "big" project which goes by the name of <strong class=""><em class="">The Phonological Atlas of Europe</em></strong>. Here are the bibliographical coordinates:<br class="">

<div class="" dir="auto">Dear all,</div>
<div class="" dir="auto">
<div class="" dir="auto">In January, Ian Joo posted a question on this list regarding phonemes in loanwords, which seems to have sparked some interest. We already mentioned SegBo (Grossman, Eisen, Nikolaev and Moran 2020a), the first large-scale cross-linguistic database of phonological segment borrowing in the world's languages, which has more than 1600 borrowed sounds documented in more than 500</div>
<div class="" dir="auto">languages.</div>
<div class="" dir="auto">However, I would now like to draw your attention to our upcoming talk and other publications available:</div>
<div class="" dir="auto"> </div>
<div class="" dir="auto">1. SLE talk about the notion of "borrowability" (Eisen, Nikolaev, Grossman and Moran 2020). Our online session (for SLE members) will take place on August 27th at 15:30 (GMT+2). The talk itself is already publicly available (link below).</div>
<div class="" dir="auto"> </div>
<div class="" dir="auto">2. Revisiting the Uniformitarian Hypothesis (Grossman, Eisen, Nikolaev and Moran 2020b), a study in which we used SegBo in order to detect recent changes in the typological frequencies of speech sounds.</div>
<div class="" dir="auto"> </div>
<div class="" dir="auto">3. My master's thesis (Eisen 2019) presents SegBo and its data, and investigates the notion of "borrowability", the role of features in the process of borrowing, and rhotic segment borrowing. It is also available online (link below).</div>
<div class="" dir="auto"> </div>
