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.

In addition to posting a summary, we'd like to remind people that it
is usually a good idea to personally thank those individuals who have
taken the trouble to respond to the query.

Subject:  Syntax and Semantics for undergrad/grad students

Dear colleagues:

I have taught a graduate course Structure of English: Syntax and
semantics using R. Jakobs' English Syntax: A grammar for English
language professionals. This course will include both grad and
undergrad students next semester. Would any of you recommend another
text also appropriate for undergraduate students? I know that Jakobs'
book can be used with both groups. However, some students come to us
with no or very little knowledge of grammar (esp. in-service teachers
seeking a certificate in teaching English as a second language) so
this book was rather difficult for them.


Thank you very much!

Lida Dutkova-Cope

Subject:  Artificial Bilingualism

Dear Linguists,

I am working on a dissertation on artificial bilingualism, which deals
with cases where L1-speaking parents, within their L1-environment, try
to raise their children bilingually, using an L2 which is neither of
the parents' native language.  If anyone knows about relevant cases, I
would truly appreciate any contacts as well as bibliographic hints.

Thank you very much in advance,
Marion Griessler
