Dear LINGUIST List subscribers,
 
I am a senior a lecturer in linguistics in the Department of English at 
Fez University. I am supervising a number of Ph.D doctorants from the 
departments of English and French.

I am actually prepapring a paper on how to help doctorate students 
from Departments other than English use and benefit from references 
on Theoretical Linguistics written in English. To do so, I seek to get 
information on the difficulties that this category of students with an 
average standard of English language proficiency usually faces when 
reading references in English knowing that most primary sources are 
written in English? How can we help those students benefit from those 
sources to progress in their research? I want to have different linguists' 
points of view about this issue.
 
LINGUIST members may contact me off list, and I promise to collect all 
the replies and submit them as a Summary for those who may be 
interested.
 
With much appreciation,
 
Dr. Souad Slaoui
