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

In 2004, the sociolinguist Scott Kiesling started to focus on a word 
which has not gained too much attention before, although it is used 
frequently in the present and the past. This manifold word is ''dude''.

In order to see how the term has changed in its usage since 2004 we 
would like to do a replicate study based on the research questions of 
Kiesling. 

Please help us to collect information and data for this and fill in the 
query which is attached to this link:
