[My-hm] New publication on Bridging Constructions in White Hmong

[Nerida Jarkey]

Dear friends and colleagues,

Just writing to let you know about a new publication, available via the open-source Language Sciences Press at http://langsci-press.org/catalog/book/216:
Jarkey, N. (2019). Bridging Constructions in narrative texts in White Hmong, in V. Guérin (Ed.), Bridging Constructions (Studies in Diversity Linguistics 24). Berlin: Language Sciences Press, pp. 129-156.

The narrative texts used as data for this chapter came from some extremely valuable sources, with which those of you who have worked on White Hmong will be very familiar: Fuller (1985), Johnson (1992), and Vang, Yang, & Smalley (1990). Standing on the shoulders of giants here!

Looking forward so much to hearing from everyone else about recent publications!

Warmest and best,
Nerida
