Hello -

I am looking for any references on the category Mood Phrase. I was told that
it was proposed some years ago, but so far I have found nothing published
in the GB literature. I would be most appreciative of help in tracking down
whatever exists in print on this.
Many Thanks!

Dear fellow LINGUIST participants,

Is there anybody out there who could help me with any information on
the current research in the segmental phonology and acoustics
phonetics of the  Serbian language? Actually, anything from the
sixties on will be fine. I am particularly interested in vowels,
especially their formant structure, and the correlation of their
acoustics and articulation. Thank you all in advance, with
appologies for cross-posting.

Dear Linguists,

A friend of mine is going to make a comparison between Zellig S. Harriss
and Bloomfield with regards to their methodologies of language research.
He would like to have some comments from you. He has also promised to
post a summary.

Thank you in advance.
Best regards.
Wang Zhenyu
