================================================================  

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 Linguists,
  
Is anybody aware of any language in which a noun or noun phrase receives
double accusative markers for showing emphasis? Are you aware of any
literature review or scholarship in this regard?

I will be grateful for your helpful and isightful comments and hope to hear
from you soon.

Sincerely,

Dear Linguists,
  
Is there any relationship between a keyword (and its  socio-semantic or
cultural load) and its frequency in the proverbs or sayings in which it
appears? Are you aware of any scholarship in this regard?
  
I will be grateful for your helpful and isightful comments and hope to hear
from you soon.

Sincerely,
