Dear colleagues!

My name is Olga Mostinskaya. I am a post-graduate student in Moscow
Linguistic University, Russia. The subject of my thesis is
"Presuppositional component of communication and its applied modeling".
I would like very much to get in touch with linguists who are interested
in the subject of presuppositions and their formal modeling. I am
looking forward to mutually useful cooperation.

Hello,

I am a PhD student in applied linguistics, working on the influence of rule
complexity and structural complexity on instructed (explicit) second
language learning. I am looking for some clear-cut work definitions of
grammatical rules and grammatical structures. Is there anyone who could
give me some references or information on this topic?

Many thanks in advance.
Sincerely,
