I'm writing my MA paper and I need some help form ladies and gentmen here. I need the the lexical density of spoken & written Englsih set out by Halliday. In fact, I find two: one is spoken:1.5-2, written: 3-6 (from 杨信彰. 英语书面语体中的词汇密度特征.解放军外语学院学报.1995(3) ); the other is spoken: under 3, written: above 5 (from 王欣.《葛底斯堡演说》的功能语法分析. 西安外国语学院学报. 2003(1)). I don't know which one I should adopt. Can anyone tell me any other papper or book covering this aspect available at home? Than you very much
