Continuing the morphology and syntax discussion

Wed Oct 31 20:18:17 UTC 2012

Dr. (I presume) Colson makes a good point regarding silos. As a teacher of Nishnaabemwin who doesn't have any formal linguistic training, "listening in" on linguists' discussion often gives me information that is very useful. Concepts I glean in this way often help me to clarify the changes that my non-linguistics-majors, adult students find so bewildering and worrisome. So, I'd like to be kept in the loop even though I'd only be a listener.

                   Wouldn't it better for the non-linguists to be included in such a     discussion, rather than be copied in, since otherwise there is a     risk of yet another silo which are never a good idea. It's much     easier to prevent a silo than to get rid of them after they've been     created. It's not that difficult to just press the delete     button..and I'd prefer to have this option than to remain     oblivious.  

     Best,

In order not to flood the listserv with a                 discussion that may not be relevant for all members we                 might want to wait and see who expresses an interest and                 then either set up a separate list or just make a                 cc-list for the purposes of this discussion.

                         I'm just putting out a feeler to see if there                           is interest in continuing the syntax                           morphology discussion online.
                         It seemed like Julie Brittain's paper on                           Sunday morning put us right in the middle of                           it again, but half of the folks were already                           gone by then.
                         Let me know if it's worth talking in this                           venue.
                         Cheers,
