[Histling-l] CIPL Newsletter 3

Wed Oct 14 09:37:17 EDT 2020

Dear Friends and Colleagues,

I hope everyone is continuing to stay safe and sane in these difficult times.

As you may recall, the International Society for Historical Linguistics is a member of CIPL (the Comité international permanent des linguistes), and it was agreed some time ago that the CIPL Newsletter would be circulated to members of ISHL via the HistLing list.  Here, now, is the third issue, which has just appeared.

With all good wishes,

John Charles Smith
