Meeting Description:

BACKGROUND
The Eleventh Manchester Phonology Meeting (11mfm) is the latest in a
series of meetings which have become one of the key conferences for
phonologists from all corners of the world. In an informal atmosphere,
we discuss a wide range of topics, including the phonological
description of languages, phonological theory, phonological
acquisition, phonological change and the interface between phonology
and neighbouring disciplines (phonetics, sociolinguistics,
psycholinguistics, etc.)

SPECIAL SESSION 
There is no conference theme, but, following the success of such
sessions in previous years, a special themed session has been
organised on 'Historical Phonology And Phonological Theory'.

SPECIAL SESSION SPEAKERS (in alphabetical order): 
* Mark Hale (Concordia) 
* Paul Kiparsky (Stanford) 
* Aditi Lahiri (Konstanz) 
* April McMahon (Sheffield)
