Only NATIVE SPEAKERs of ENGLISH can participate (if you're not a native speaker, pls refrain from participating). We are interested in your native speaker intuitions (not prescriptive rules of grammar) regarding certain types of questions and statements. This is an exploratory study, so unfortunately we cannot afford to offer any funding. If you nevertheless would like to help us (and the progress of science ;-), please send us an email at: suvresearch_prin2n3@yahoo.com We will then point you to our online experiment, Thx a lot for your interest!

If that is not the case, I apologize for spaming this list. In any case, if you ARE interested in language, maybe you will find our experiments interesting.
