 		 NACAL 28: CALL FOR PAPERS

		 Twenty-eighth Annual
 North American Conference on Afroasiatic Linguistics

 	 PORTLAND, OREGON

	 Friday, March 10th-Sunday, March 12th, 2000

(at the beginning of the American Oriental Society's Portland conference.)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dear Scholars in Afroasiatic Languages,

We are once again planning that pre-AOS bash for linguists working
with the Afroasiatic language family (Semitic, Egyptian, Berber,
Cushitic, Chadic, and Omotic languages). Proposals for 20-minute
papers are requested on any area of the phonology, grammar, syntax,
synchrony, diachrony, sociolinguistics, or epigraphy of these
languages. Those who are also attending the American Oriental Society
Conference can request to be scheduled in the joint session between
NACAL and AOS, but such slots will be limited in number due to time
constraints.

Deadline for paper proposals is January 10th, 2000, but please use the
e-mail form below to let me know now whether you plan to attend and to
keep the mailing list up-to-date. You may also submit an abstract via
e-mail, if you so desire. (FORM BELOW)

Hotel information and other logistics will be forthcoming.

The registration fee will be $40 payable to "Geoffrey Graham." Please
mail all checks and other postal correspondence to:

Geoffrey Graham (NACAL 28)
Department of NELC, Yale University
Hall of Graduate Studies, Box 208236
New Haven, CT 06520-8236, USA

The International Circle of Korean Linguistics (ICKL) is pleased to

accompany the abstract: names and affiliations of all authors,
subfield of Korean linguistics, postal address, e-mail address,
telephone number, and fax number.

NOTE: We strongly encourage submission by e-mail. If you elect to send
