From Utterances to Speech Acts

By Mikhail Kissine

"Kissine offers a new theory of speech acts which is philosophically sophisticated and builds on work in cognitive science, formal semantics, and linguistic typology. This highly readable, brilliant essay is a major contribution to the field."

--François Recanati, Institut Jean-Nicod

I know there is an article dealing with the phnological adaptation of loan
words in recepient language.It's an article written by Larry Hyman in the
Studies in African Linguistics.

Battison, Robbin. Lexical Borrowing in ASL (American Sign Language).
Haven't got the rest of the reference but I am sure you can find it. Talks
about the morphological processes of ordinary signs gradually subsuming
fingerspelling as English words become a part of ASL.

methodology_.
