Dear LINGUIST List Subscribers,

As the book reviews team for LINGUIST, we're constantly 
amazed at the range of books we have the pleasure of 
reading about and and reviewers we get to interact with. 
Of course, people face real challenges in writing good 
reviews quickly. One common challenge is writing in a 
language the reviewer doesn't speak natively. When the 
book is in a language other than English and its intended 
audience is speakers or readers of that language, that 
seems to us like an unnecessary challenge. In consultation 
with the LINGUIST editors, we've decided to make our book 
reviews multilingual, beginning immediately. We will begin 
by adding reviews in the languages in which we have 
sufficient expertise for editing: Spanish and German.

Another reason to donate to LINGUIST!

Mit freundlichen Grüßen, 
Un cordial saludo,

Your reviews team

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as 
such can receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered 
501(c) Non Profit organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These 
donations can be offset against your federal and sometimes your state tax
return (U.S. tax payers only). For more information visit the IRS Web-Site,
or contact your financial advisor.

Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match 
any gift you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails your 
contacting your human resources department and sending us a form that the 
EMU Foundation fills in and returns to your employer. This is generally a
simple administrative procedure that doubles the value of your gift to
LINGUIST, without costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if
your company operates such a program.

Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
