In his video, he goes;
"I like my woman like I like my coffee. In a plastic cup."
Why is it funny?!

cognitive grammar

Your help is needed once again. Have you heard of the following books and
articles, or do you have any access to the particular pages I mention?

–> Langacker, Ronald W. 1999. Grammar and Conceptualisation. Mounton de
Gruyter.
–> Langacker Ronald, W. 1997. Generics and Habituals. In Athanasiadou,
Angeliki and Rene Dirven (eds), On Conditionals Again. Amsterdam: John
Benjamins, pp. 191-222.
–> Langacker, Ronald W. 1988. An Overview of Cognitive Grammar. In
Rudzka-Ostyn, Brygida (ed), Topics in Cognitive Linguistics. Amsterdam: John
Benjamins, pp. 3-48.

If you do, please, let me know, as I would appreciate any pages from the
aforementioned materials. I need them desperately , but I haven’t been
able to get them.

Or do you happen to know prof. Langacker’s official site, or e-mail?

I would appreciate your help…. Best regards…

Certification Question

admin — Thu, 03 May 2012 23:25:55 +0000

I am certified as a Special Ed teacher in the State of Pennsylvania. I
would like to switch to English as a Second Language. The state of
Penna. currently does not have certification for this (the last I
checked) Does anyone know a good college near Philadelphia where I could
be trained in this area? I am seeking a graduate program. Any other
ideas or suggestions would be helpful.
Thank you
