The Structural Design of Language

By Thomas S. Stroik, Michael T. Putnam

Query:   I am looking for information on German quotatives, specifically und
ich/er so (e.g. und ich so: O Mann! Wie hast du das gemacht?)

I'm wondering what its current social distribution is, and whether or
not it is stigmatized. Personal observations and references are both
appreciated. Please reply to efluhart@mix.wvu.edu and I will post a
summary to the list.

Thanks,
