We'd like to remind readers that the responses to queries are usually
best posted to the individual asking the question. That individual is
then  strongly encouraged to post a summary to the list.   This policy was
instituted to help control the huge volume of mail on LINGUIST; so we
would appreciate your cooperating with it whenever it seems appropriate.

Subject:  Creole inquiry
 
Dear all,
 
An MA supervisee of mine is about to undertake research on the syntax of
Guadeloupe Creole.  She is eager to contact JEAN BERNABE who was (and maybe
still is) at the Universite' des Antilles et de la Guyane.  If anyone knows
his e-mail or snail address, please forward it/them to:
 
O.E.Cyrille at mod-lang.salford.ac.uk
 
Anyone else willing to act as an informal informant or who might be able to
give helpful pointers to useful sources is also requested to get in touch.
 
Many thanks,

Subject:  language use in the performing arts
 
 
Is anyone else currently working on language use in the performing arts,
esp. dance?  My data have previously come primarily from flamenco.  I'm most
interested in making contact with anyone in the U.K. working in this area,
since I will be there for much of the summer.  Does any U.K. university offer
relevant courses for this?  If you are interested in exchanging ideas in this
area, please contact me before 1 July.
 
Information on recent publications is also very welcome, especially anything
after 1994.
 
Thanks,
Mariana Maduell

Hello !
 
I was wondering, and hoping, if anyone knows of a piece of IBM software
that will allow one to create new fonts ?
 
Thank you...

     I just subscribe in this list.
     I dont know if it is on-topic here, but I have a question:
 
     Does someone know what does "Groovy, sekai wa totemo groovy!" means
and what language is it writed?
 
     I am new here! From Brazil!

Subject:  Japanese informants
 
Dear netters,
  I'm a student doing a research on how speakers of English and of
Japanese learn Chinese reflexives.  I desperately need Japanese
informants to judge the grammaticality of the test sentences.  That'll be
fine if the informants don't have Chinese background knowledge.  I
appreciate any response.  Thanks in advance.
Best wishes,
Constance
