	Dear Linguists,
	
	    I am an MA student who intend to conduct a
	research on the possible effects of second-language
	leaners' meta-linguistic awareness on their oral
	performance with specific reference to "Phrasal
	Stress".
	    I am specially interested to see if such an
	awareness devloped through such approaches as Metrical
	Phonology or language exposure has any positive
	effects on their oral performance. If you know of any
	relevant studies or sources, please write to me at
	mzakery at yahoo.com
	
	
	                                   Yours Sincerely
	
	                                   Mahboubeh Zakery

Can anyone direct me to literature on the subject of
frequency order of russian words?  I've come across
Nicholas J. Brown's Russian Learner's Dictionary of
the top 10,000 most frequently used russian words.  Is
this online (in russian or english characters)?  Is
there another russian frequency book that is currently
online that I could download?

best,
Melissa Gygi
