On behalf of one of my students I'd be grateful for any information
about work relating to language and identity in Singapore. Mari Rhydwen, Humanities, Murdoch University, Perth, WA 6150, Australia Telephone: 09 360 2217 Fax: 09 360 6367 I posted a request for information on church ''register'' on 3/13 and it was brought to my attention by Mr. Joseph Frost that it might help to clarify what denomination of church I'm using as a reference. I am looking for non-denominational church ''register'' information, specifically ''modern'' christian-based churches, but not orthodox or catholic churches. Thanks, April Gentry e-mail: AAGentry@aol.com Original query: I am studying what I call *Christian Language*. It's really a register that people speak in a church, or on a Sunday morning sermon on the t.v. It's bleeding with metaphors and interpretations of the Bible. I haven't been able to find any references to this register. Any and all input will be greatly appreciated. Please e-mail me. I am currently doing a research project on language policy/planning in a graduate course I am taking presently. The information I am seeking is on any sources about language policy/planning in Burma(Mynamr) that has taken place in the 1990's. Thank you, Virginia Jeffries |
