Subject: The English Superlative: Native Speakers Needed

 
Dear language enthusiasts,

I am currently writing my PhD thesis in English linguistics at the University
of Bamberg, Germany, about a well-known feature of the English language: The
alternation between the two variants of the superlative (-est vs. most).

In order to obtain data for my thesis, I have devised an online questionnaire
which takes approximately 6-8 minutes to fill in and is completely anonymous.
The data I collect will not be used for commercial purposes; you will notice
that no company would potentially be interested in the stuff I deal with. All
varieties of English are welcome, but participants have to be native speakers
of English.

Your help in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Here's the link:

Thank you very much in advance!
Nikolai
