3. INAGAWA Tomoko, Re: Query: tag-questions

 Hallo! A student of mine needs informations concerning the diachronic study of
 Chinese languages. I would greatly appreciate a private answer; I shall of cou
rse summerize the result in a later issue of the list. Thank you.

I have a reference to an article by Lenneberg describing an experiment
in which high school students were given Sarah the chimp's symbols to
manipulate:

E. Lenneberg, "Neuropsychological Comparison between Man, Chimpanzee, and
Monkey," Neuropsychologia 13 (1975) 125.

Yet my library tells me that neither author nor title are in the index to
Vol. 13.

Can someone please give me a correct reference? Thanks.

Dear All,

A senior student is writing a paper on tag-questions in English.
Could anyone suggest me a reading list on the topic?

Thanks in advance.
