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

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.

Dear linguists,

I am conducting a dissertation research project focused on how texts are
translated from Chinese into English. It involves reading some passages and
completing an online survey about them. It should only take about 40
minutes to complete. If you are a native speaker of English (born and grew
up in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, or the United
States, and speak English as your first language), and you have completed
at least high school education (12th grade), you are eligible to participate.

You can find the translated passages and the survey by clicking on the
following link or pasting the URL to your browser:

This link will be enabled till September 30, 2009.

The website will not collect individually identifiable information.

If you wish, please pass on this email to anyone you know who qualifies for
the study.

Thank you very much for your support!
