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.

Any information on teaching phonetic transcription in a graduate
introductory linguistics class would be appreciated. Specifically, how
much leeway should there be in the transcriptions students do?  I will
post a summary if the discussion warrants.

Dear LINGUIST,

I am a Ph.D. student in my first year of writing on "Readers' Response
to Translations of Iraqi Poetry: Badr Shakir As-Sayyab as a Case
Study". As you are well-aware of the present situation of the Iraqi
libraries, I am appealing to you to help with references on the
subject, consultation with your esteemed professors, and if possible
any training courses in Translation & Linguistics.

Appreciating your assistance in advance

Yours,

Kadhim Al-Ali
