fkl-tu-berlin.de TUBerlin(http://www.tu-berlin.de/eng/index.html)is the locale of this event and this university is very much interested in Korean Linguistics. Studies such as ''Comparison of the Korean and German Phonemic Systems, Case Systems, Passive Constructions, Frequencies of Topics, Word Order, and Neologism'' would be very helpful to the project planned by TUBerlin. Professor/Dean Erdmann and Dr. Cho suggest that more European/German scholars participate in the conference and thus make the event more international. Quantitative Linguistics Circle of Seoul National University under the leadership of the President of ICKL, Prof. Sang-Oak Lee, is planning to provide many participants with free accomodations for two nights. We plan for in depth discussions among participants on homepage.
