We'd like to remind readers that the responses to queries are usually
best posted to the individual asking the question. That individual is
then strongly encouraged to post a summary to the list. This policy was
instituted to help control the huge volume of mail on LINGUIST; so we
would appreciate your cooperating with it whenever it seems appropriate.

In addition to posting a summary, we'd like to remind people that it
is usually a good idea to personally thank those individuals who have
taken the trouble to respond to the query.

Subject:  Pragmatics of internet sites:  references?

Dear colleagues,

A student of mine would like to write a Master's thesis on the
pragmatics of internet sites.  Consequently, we're looking for recent,
linguistically-oriented references that might enlighten her (and me)
and help her decide on a more specific subtopic.  Can anyone help?
She works on French, so we'll be especially grateful for any
references to studies done specifically on French web sites.  Thanks
very much in advance!

I am looking for published studies of the discourse marker YET in
English.  Also, any studies on the word STILL, which, like YET, seems
to have a basic temporal meaning which underlies its use as a
discourse marker.
