Who’s willing to give a hand to French linguists for English publications?

Hi folks!

In the past few days I’ve received a couple of emails about getting/giving help for publishing in English: one message was from an international journal, they’re drawing up a list of linguists who’d be willing to help non-native speakers of English in the final stages of preparation of their manuscripts before publication; another message was sent to me as a potential client: it came from a company that’s specialised in helping authors preparing their manuscripts, improving the clarity, the language and the format before submission to scientific journals.

 

Alexis Michaud gives a talk on tonal languages

On the 13th March at 13h30, at the ENS-LSH in Lyon, Parvis René Descartes (Métro Debourg), Alexis Michaud will be talking about tonal languages for the second Conf’Expresso*(Expresso Talk) of the semester . He will provide us with basic notions of tonal typology and then move on to a case study – namely an analysis of Naxi language – (a Burmese-Tibetan language spoken in China).
