Dear Info-CHILDES,

    I would like to announce the addition of a seventh bilingual  
child to the Chinese University Cantonese-English bilingual corpus  
developed by Virginia Yip, Stephen Matthews, and their colleagues.   
The transcripts for this seventh child -- Janet -- are linked to
video and the transcription is in Cantonese and English with a %mor  
line.

This is an auspicious day for this announcement, since it is 10/10  
which is also a holiday in Taiwan.

The web page for the CUHK project, which discusses their recent book  
and corpus, can be found at  http://www.cuhk.edu.hk/lin/book/ 
bilingualchild/
and the data are available in CHILDES in the /Biling segment.

Many thanks to Virginia, Stephen, and their colleagues for the  
addition of this new bilingual child.
