Dear Respondent,

I am helping a colleague study words for watercourses in English. Perhaps you would not mind helping me help her by answering the following questions ? Your participation is voluntary; you do not have to answer anything you wish not to answer; you do not have to turn this in if you don't want to. If I do not immediately retrieve the sheet from you, please send it to me (or drop it off for me) at the Department of Anthropology, University of California, Riverside, CA 92521.

Thank you very much.
