Daniel, I am appreciating your invitation to explore SVO-p...

Bhav, I am appreciating your inquiry about the different forms that
invitations can take, in different cultures...

and Lisa, I am appreciating your response to Bhav!

more generally, I am appreciating the existence of this list...
and wishing all of you, a wonderful New Year!

Rosa
