Two American Dialect Society members are dialect coaches in Hollywood. They

are teaming up to make two joint presentations at this year's ADS annual

meeting in San Diego; one is about "Dialect Coaching Along the

Spanish/English Axis."

If you're studying dialects in the movies, you might find their inside

perspective useful. The program is in the May issue of the ADS newsletter;

more detail coming in September. Send me your s-mail address and I'll be glad

to send you a copy.

Allan Metcalf, executive secretary, American Dialect Society
