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 would like to  know if anyone is aware of any studies which treat dialect
differences (phonological) in Kikongo and/or Kimbundu. This could either be
current work or old stuff. The older the better.

Thanks in advance for any insights.
