Summary:	Regarding Query: http://linguistlist.org/issues/18/18-522.html Dear colleagues, I apologize for taking so long in sending you the summary of my request on Saussure. I received the following responses: Andrew Carstairs-McCarthy indicated his chapter 'Basic terminology', in P Stekauer & R Lieber (eds) _Handbook of Word-Formation_ (Springer, 2005). Philip W. Davis told me about the chapter 2 of his Modern Theories of Language (1973, Prentice-Hall), unfortunately now out of print. Konrad Szczesniak suggested me the reading of Aronoff��s Fundamentals of Morphology. Shishir Bhattacharja kindly sent me his doctoral thesis, ��Word formation in Bengali��, in which he adopts a neo-Saussurean point of view. Israel Cohen sent me interesting considerations on the etymology of idioms, but as this is not my main area of interest, I ask you to contact him directly (cohen.izzy@gmail.com), if you wish so. Best regards, Bruno O. Maroneze Ph.D. Student University of Sao Paulo, Brazil
