 ***** Call for Manuscripts *****

The Southwest Journal of Linguistics invites manuscripts written in
Spanish or in English on any topic in linguistics, though essays
dealing with the languages of the southwestern United States and
northern Mexico are especially encouraged. The journal also publishes
scholarly reviews of the literature, book reviews, and occasional
commentary on topics of concern to the journal's readership. The
journal is published in two numbers, one in June and one in December.

The June 1999 issue of the journal, now in press, includes an essay on
public linguistics written by Robert D. King, an article on the
ingressive airstream in women's speech in Tohono O'odham written by
Jane Hill and Ofelia Zepeda, an analysis of two Korean motion verbs
written by Jeong-Hwa Lee, a treatment of epistemic and evidential
modality written by Ferdinand de Haan, and a sociolinguistic study of
Spanish in El Paso, Texas, written by Joseph Weyers. The issue also
includes seven book reviews.
