Hi Mark,

I wonder where all the confusion came from.

The title is probably a typo by whoever put together the cumulative index, but 1979 and 1980 might both be legitimate, as it seems Volume 5 ran over two years, with the 1st issue being 1979 and the second issue being 1980. This is the 2nd issue, but it says “Spring”. In those days we used Spring and Fall for issue 1 and issue 2 respectively, so this is an odd one.

All the best,
Randy

Thanks to Dave, Scott, and Keisuke who replied off-list, and so quickly too. Much appreciated.

The proper ref, then, is clearly:

The Wa Languages, 1980, LTBA 5.2: 1-182

I wonder where all the confusion came from.

Thanks again
Mark

Hi folks

I'm trying to work out the correct reference to Diffloth's study of Waic lgs in LTBA 5.2. I've seen it alternately referenced as 1979 (SEALANG, NTU) and 1980 (STEDT, Sun 1993), and titles referenced as "The Wa anaphors" (STEDT), "The Wa languages" (SEALANG, NTU), and "Proto-Waic" (Sun 1993). There are scans on SEALANG<http://sealang.net/sala/archives/pdf8/diffloth1979wa.pdf> and NTU<https://dr.ntu.edu.sg/handle/10356/178735> but missing the title page (if there is one) and TOC.

I don't suppose that anyone would have a physical copy or full scan of LTBA 5.2 including title page/TOC that could help to resolve this?

Many thanks
Mark
