[Corpora-List] Old Russian, Old Turkic, Kamasin and Udeghe added

[Yuri Tambovtsev]

Dear corpora colleagues, some of the texts in my corpora are short, but some are rather long.My Old Turkic corpus is only 5000 phonemes.Belorussian corpus is also rather small: only 30 000 phonemes. I compared Belorussian sound picture to those of Ukrainian, Old Russian (50 000 phonemes), modern Russian (2 million phonemes), Czech, Slovak, and my other 156 languages in my corpora of the world languages. However, my results are not published since I found no journal which would be interested in publishing my article. Do you know any? Could you send me the e-mail addresses of some editors of some possible journals? My phonostatistical comparison showed that Belorussian is very much close to the OLd Russian texts I used. I guess we could work together on a joint grant. A joint conference is also a good idea. I welcome any sort of co-operation. Now I have added Udeghe, a Tungus-Manchurian language to my corpora. I also plan to compare the modern languages with some dead languages like Old Turkic or Kamasin. Looking forward to hearing about some joint project or any other sort of co-operation in the field of typology and phonetics to yutamb at hotmail.com Please, send me your messages to this e-mail address since the other one is overloaded with spam. Be well, remain yours sincerely Prof. Yuri Tambovtsev
