A student at the University of Costa Rica who does not have access to
linguist.list and wants to write her Master's thesis on some aspect of non native acquisition of Spanish has asked me to ask the members of the list to suggest essential bibliography in this specific area as well as the general area of second language acquisition. She, and I, will genuinely appreciate your assistance. You may respond directly to me. Many thanks, Ronald Ross Department of Linguistics University of Costa Rica rross@cariari.ucr.ac.cr I am posting this request on behalf of a friend who is on the faculty of a Houston, Texas law school. She is doing research on the use of ethnic slurs and insults as a means of social control and would appreciate any references you may know on this subject, first in the context of North America, but also in any other cultural context. Responses may be sent to me and I will pass them on to her. Thank you. Philip W. Davis +=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+= Philip W.

Their English is unique and at times requires subtitles (particularly that of the eldest brother, Delbert). I'm wondering if it is a ''family dialect'' rather than a regional dialect. Does anyone have more information on this? Paul Kiparsky |
