Has anyone been doing analytical modeling of the physics of
speech production? I am posting this question on behalf of
an acquaintance who is an expert on aeroacoustic
sound modeling, i.e., developing mathematical theories which
predict the sound produced by unsteady fluid flows such as
boundary layers, jets, vortices, flow through
constrictions, etc. He has become interested in applying
his mathematical techniques to model speech
production, but would like to know the state of the art in
this area. Any recent references or contacts will be
much appreciated.

Dear fellow linguists,
 I am looking for a software that allows
for creation of a dictionary i.e. provides a skeleton for
writing a dictionary in the right dictionary format.
 I would be really thankful if you could provide me
with site addresses where such a package is available.
I believe there is a package but it is for the MAC and
does not work under DOS.
 If there are enough responses I'll post a summary.
Thanks in advance.

Hello, Linguists!

I would like to know the best way to obtain phonetic symbols
to use with Microsoft Word (version 6.0) on a Macintosh.
Is there a font package one (or one's employer) can buy
and install? I would appreciate any help available.

Could someone please let me know whether the proceedings of the 4th
and 5th annual Japanese/Korean Linguistics Conferences have been
published, and if they have, the name of the publisher(s), price, and
ISBN number. Our library has vols. 1-3, and I would like to have
them order subsequent volumes, but I have to provide the above
details. Thanks in anticipation. Wayne Lawrence.
