     If you would be so kind, please address my questions below:

     1) I conduct a choir and we are singing a song that uses the
Kurpian dialect (eg, "chtoz" as [xtus] rather than 'htooSH'). I would
like to be faithful in its pronunciation. Can you direct me to someone
who can provide me with the proper IPA for this text?

     2) I am familiar with IPA for the standard languages of opera,
but I would like to know the standard symbols for Polish. Where can I
find the symbols particular to the language?

     Thank you. Any help will be much appreciated.

     Sincerely,

     Dayle Vander Sande

Fellow Linguists,

	I was contacted this week by a German man searching for
contacts and resources for Kalmykia and its languages.  If any of you
have suggestions for him, please send them directly to him at the
following address.

I'm looking for references for Faroese (besides that of Lockwood
1955). I am also interested in discussing aspects of the
phonological/morphological system of Faroese with a native speaker of
the language, or someone who has significant familiarity with the
language.

Thank you in advance,
