Dear Randy & Chris,</div>

</div>
<div>Thank you so much! The handout, the list of references and the explanation are exactly what I was looking for.
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div class="elementToProof">You have led me to discover two recently published papers by Keightley (
<a href="https://brill.com/view/journals/bcl/13/1/article-p3_2.xml" id="LPNoLPOWALinkPreview_3">
https://brill.com/view/journals/bcl/13/1/article-p3_2.xml</a> ) and Takashima<span style="background-color:rgb(255, 255, 255);display:inline !important">’s revised article on this ( <a href="https://doi.org/10.1163/2405478X-01302010" id="LPNoLPOWALinkPreview_1">https://doi.org/10.1163/2405478X-01302010</a>
). In addition, </span>Huang commented ( <a href="https://doi.org/10.1163/2405478X-01302009" data-auth="NotApplicable" id="LPNoLPOWALinkPreview_1">https://doi.org/10.1163/2405478X-01302009</a> ) that many of those typescripts on this have not been published
and thus he had to relied on Shen’s list of references, yet they still did not get to read some of them.</div>

<div class="_Entity _EType_OWALinkPreview _EId_OWALinkPreview_1 _EReadonly_1"></div>
<div>If I would like to look at those typescripts further, will I again have to ask for the group<span style="background-color:rgb(255,255,255); display:inline!important">’s</span> help if they are still not published or made available elsewhere so far?

Takashima should be included in that debate. See attached with a nice list of references at the end.</div>

<div dir="auto">Dear Shumin,
<div>Welcome to the group. You can download the handout from the talk:</div>
<div><a href="https://www.dropbox.com/s/uxh711yxyarktm8/Nivison%201992%20On%20modal%20qi.pdf?dl=0" data-auth="NotApplicable" id="OWAa27fa703-a2c9-812b-2637-00a76128f229" class="OWAAutoLink">https://www.dropbox.com/s/uxh711yxyarktm8/Nivison%201992%20On%20modal%20qi.pdf?dl=0</a></div>
<div>At that time there was a long-running debate mainly between Nivison and David Keightley about the nature of 其 in the OBI inscriptions. This talk was part of it. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>All the best,</div>

That is the citation given in Sagart (1999) The Roots of Old Chinese. But the same paper appears as
