Hello everyone,

I am from Morocco. I am a researcher in generative linguistics
(syntax). The objective of this message is that I need some references
on computational linguistics, kind of guide lines. So could somebody,
please, tell me about some available works on the subject (for
beginners). I find the subject very fascinating and I want to know
what it is all about. At the same time I would be very thankful if I
could be informed about some URLs where some material on the subject
can be viewed.

Thank you

Dear Linguists!

I am currently working on the description of a few speech genres. One
of them is COMPLAINING in spoken Polish. I wonder if someone could
help me to find some "complaining" texts in English or in other
languages (are there such texts on-line?). I would like to compare
them to see if this type of text is similar in Polish and in other
languages.

I would appreciate any comments or suggestions you have. And I will
post the summary of course.

Please reply to: kasiahomer.fil.us.edu.pl

Thank you.

For the purposes of an article I am writing, I would like to receive
information about linguistics programs in technical colleges and
universities. I.e. where such programs exist, how extensive they
are, what degrees they offer. I am particularly interested in knowing
whether such a program exists at Cal Tech. (I already know all I need
to know about MIT.)

Thank you.
