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.

I am planning to offer a course starting in January called
Prescriptive vs. descriptive grammar.  I haven't offered it in a
while, and wondered if anyone has offered anything like this recently,
since I want to update my sources.  The audience is advanced
undergraduates (in English and in linguistics) and grad students (from
English).  If you have a syllabus to share, or suggestions for
readings, please contact me at randall at neu.edu.

Hallo Everybody,

Im looking for some grammar or learning method for the Nigerian
Language of Edo. There is a site on the web were they talk about a
grammar and a method, but the e-mail addresses they give as reference
don't work; is someone able to help me, to send me material to learn
Edo or explain me how can I get those tools? Thank you very much
