[edit] Correct citation of Prost 1956
The spelling of the title and the name of the series were in error. An image of the cover of the book is available here: http://www.choosit.org/cgi-bin/choosit3/choosit_ac.cgi?user=UJELLAA&nla=1&cart_id=&ref=1392&sousref=1392. 'Sonay' was not 'soŋey'. The 'n' had a diacritic, a dot above, to indicate its pronunciation is the velar nasal and not the dental nasal. When you search for this work in electronic databases, it will be spelled with 'n'. As for the name of the institute which published the book, *in the year of publication* it was "Institut français ...", not "Institut fondamental ...". Therefore, this is the only correct citation. I have added an internal link to the article for this institution, IFAN. The name change is discussed at the top of that article. Hurmata (talk) 10:12, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
