This study was part of a larger cross-cultural study of socialization financed by the Ford Foundation and under the general direction of John Whiting of the Harvard Graduate School of Education and others. • The variation in this dialect between-in and-ing in the participle ending does not extend to words with a final-in in an unstressed syllable in standard speech. This variation is therefore probably best viewed as a case or free alternation or two allomorphs which happen to differ in respect to one phoneme, rather than as a case or phonological free varia lion.
