================================================================  

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.

To post to LINGUIST, use our convenient web form at

Subject: Word Norms - Online Experiment 
 

I am currently running an experiment on bilingual language 
production for my Master's thesis and I need some additional data on word
characteristics.

I am looking for native English speakers to assess 22 words on one of three
characteristics at http://cogs.nbu.bg/cogm202/students/marina/norms/

The completion of the questionnaire takes about 5 - 7 min.  Thank you in
advance for your help!

Subject: Conersational Analysis of TV Talk Shows 

	

I am an MA. student from Iraq.  I am conducting research on the structural
analysis of TV talk shows.  In the analysis section of research, I find out that
Schegloof and sack's methedology of conversation analysis is unsuitable for
identifying adjacency pairs in the talk show transcript.

Would there be any other suitable methodology fo the identification of adjacency
pairs in the TV talk show transcript.

Many thanks,

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as such can 
receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered 501(c) Non Profit 
organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These donations can be offset against 
your federal and sometimes your state tax return (U.S. tax payers only). For more 
information visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact your financial advisor.

Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match any gift 
you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails your contacting your human 
resources department and sending us a form that the EMU Foundation fills in and returns 
to your employer. This is generally a simple administrative procedure that doubles the 
value of your gift to LINGUIST, without costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment 
to check if your company operates such a program.

Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
