Martha McGinnis: Re: can anyone help me? (Reply to Aurora)

[Martha McGinnis]

Dear Aurora,

If you are looking for information about Distributed Morphology, I
would suggest you start by looking at Rolf Noyer's Distributed
Morphology FAQ: http://www.ling.upenn.edu/~rnoyer/dm/.

If you are looking for references on the acquisition of English by
speakers of Chinese, you might try searching the MLA bibliography,
which is available electronically at most universities.  You may also
want to try posting a request for information to the Info-Childes
list, which deals more with language acquisition than this list does.
You can subscribe to Info-Childes by sending email to
requests at mail.talkbank.org with the message:

      subscribe info-childes


Good luck with your research.
