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:  request for software recommendation

I'd like recommendations for software (preferably inexpensive) for a
research project looking at fifth grade student writing.  Most of the
analysis will be quite basic: number of total words/types/tokens, word
lists, and so on.  Recommendations that include information on
additional features would be helpful, too.

Hi.  My question is regarding infixation and adequate articles written
on the topic.  I'm an undergraduate student writing a paper on
Expletive Infixation and would like a lead to some papers.  I've so
far discovered one, American Speech, McMillan, 1980.  Today, I even
copied from Language, Prosodic Structure and Expletive Infixation,
McCarthy, 1982.  However, I want to know if there are any more papers
written on the topic.  Any help would be great.  Thanks a lot.

Best,
Mircea
