Dear Linguist List,

Does anyone know if John F. Carrington, author of 'Talking Drums of
Africa' (1949) and 'A Comparative Study of some Central African
Gong-Languages' (1949) is still alive, and if so, how he can be reached?

Thanks,
Ani Patel

Subject: French word frequency list


Hello,

I am working on a senior thesis and I need some information about word
frequency in French. Specifically, I am looking for a database with
frequency information of French words (ideally, both lemma frequency and
wordform frequency), preferably also including syntactic category
information. (A French version of the CELEX databases would be perfect
for my purposes.)
 
If you have any ideas of where I might find such a resource, please reply
directly to me at clinkenbfas.harvard.edu. I would appreciate any
suggestions.

Thank you very much.

Sincerely,
Liz Clinkenbeard
