Could any linguist help me with a bibliographical query? I have a photocopy of an article entitled 'The frequency of occurrence of speech sounds and tones in Cantonese' by Angela Fok (Chan Yuen Yuen). The page numbers run 150-157. Unfortunately no date or journal title appear on the copy. It is typewritten, so I assume it's a Working Papers or similar. It's not traceable by normal bibliographical searches. I believe the author was once at the University of Hong Kong, but is not traceable via their web site. I would be most grateful to anyone who could supply the missing details and/or a contact address for the author.

I'm looking for a good text for a general linguistics course for a two year college. I wouldn't call it an introductory course because few of the students will ever study linguistics. I'll stress increased awareness of language in ways helpful to parents, language learning, and communication skills, as well as general knowledge of the structure and history of language and languages. A traditionally structured text'd be fine. Thanks a million. ________________________________ Stephen DeGiulio Asst.
