Subject: Chinese r_suffixation
Dear Linguists:
I'm doing research on the r-suffix in Yichang (a mandarin dialect),and
need references on r-suffixation of any Chinese languages. Yichang
r-suffix cause rhyme changes, which are different from that in
Mandarin. One particular phenomenon is -r is mainly suffixed to
duplicated monosyllabic word. It seems duplication of a monosyllabic
word triggers r-suffixation. Does this phenomenon exist in any other
languages or dialects? Your help will be highly appreciated.
I'll post a summary if I get enough feedback.
Yours sincerely
Pan Ning

Subject: Lexical borrowing
Greetings,
I'm very much interested in "lexical borrowing" as being my MA
research. I'd like to ask about any refrences related to the
following:
- Phonological adaptation of loan words in recepient language
- Morphological adaptation of loan words in recepient (or different)
languages
I'll be appreciating your help and cooperation.
