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.

Dear members,

Hello.

I'm Mizuta, a student at Chubu University, Japan. I'm writing BA thesis
about ''politeness'', especially, comparing Japanese and English
politeness.  And, now, I need more and more data of English politeness.
If you have interest in my research, please send an e-mail to
FCF_7 at hotmail.com or makita at isc.chubu.ac.jp.  Then, I will send you my
questionnaire concerning English politeness.

Thank you for your help in advance.

Best wishes,

Subject-Language: English; Code: ENG
