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

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.

Has there been research on the outcomes of dialect contact of a minority 
language?  For example, two dialects of Arabic in contact in France, or 
two dialects of Spanish in the U.S. (such as Zentella's 1990 piece on 
lexical familiarity)?  They don't need to be immigrant languages.  I'm 
happy to compile & post responses.  Many thanks in advance.
