Full Title: Theoretical East Asian Linguistics 5 Short Title: TEAL-5 Date: 10-Sep-2008 - 11-Sep-2008 Location: Potsdam, Germany Contact Person: Daniel Hole Meeting Email: teal5 ling.uni-potsdam.de Web Site: http://www.sfb632.uni-potsdam.de/conference/teal-5.pdf Linguistic Field(s): General Linguistics; Semantics; Syntax Call Deadline: 30-Apr-2008 Meeting Description: We welcome submissions that address problems of East Asian linguistics from a theoretical perspective. A special session on 'Word-order variation and universal grammar - areal, dialectal and information-structural perspectives' will be held on the first day of the workshop. Each paper will be allotted 30 minutes for presentation and 15 minutes for discussion. Second Call for Papers The TEAL Workshop was first launched in 1990 at the University of California, Irvine as a mid-size workshop intended to foster research on East Asian linguistics. It has been an important forum for presenting new theories and exchanging novel ideas that bear on East Asian languages with theoretical interests. Since 2002, the TEAL Workshop has been an international event. It was held at Doshisha University, Japan in 2002, at National Tsing Hua University, Taiwan in 2004, and at Harvard University, USA in 2005. Last year the TEAL Workshop was held in conjunction with the Sixth GLOW in Asia. General Session: submissions from any domain of grammar are welcome Special Session: 'Word-order variation and information structure - areal and dialectal perspectives' Selection of papers is based on anonymous review of abstracts. A selection committee will be formed to review the submitted abstracts which are considered by the reviewers to be of high interest to the development of theoretical East Asian linguistics and linguistic theory in general. Please follow these guidelines to submit your abstracts: All submitted abstracts should be written in English and limited to two single-spaced pages, complete with examples and bibliography. All texts should fit within a US letter-size or A4 page, with 1-inch/2.5-cm margin all around. Each abstract should start with the title (centered) at top, followed by 3 single-spaced blank lines, above the main text. Use font size 12 throughout, preferably in Times or Times New Roman. Romanize all Asian texts, and avoid Asian character fonts unless absolutely necessary. The body of your email message should include the following information: paper title name(s) of the author(s) affiliation(s) (a single) e-mail address for correspondence general session/special session [choose one] Abstract submission is by email-attachment only. We cannot accept submissions by postal mail. Save your abstract as a PDF, DOC, or RTF file. Documents in other formats must be converted before submission. Name your abstract with your last name followed by the suffix pdf, doc, or rtf (e.g., huang.pdf, kim.doc, or watanabe.rtf). Send your abstract to: teal5 ling.uni-potsdam.de Abstract selection is based on anonymous review. Please leave your name and affiliation out of the abstract (but keep 3 blank lines between title and text). The workshop will accept at most one single-authored work and one joint-authored work by an individual. Important Dates: Deadline for abstract submissions: April 30th 2008 Notification of acceptance: June 15th 2008

The conference will consist of the general session, one additional workshop, and a series of lectures from the plenary speaker and the invited speakers. Abstracts should be anonymous and may not exceed 2 pages (A4), including examples and references, with 2.54 cm (1 inch) margin on all four sides and should employ the font Times New Roman 12 pt.

Please send a separate file containing the following information: (i) the title of the paper, (ii) the author's name, (iii) affiliation, (iv) e-mail address, (v) telephone number, and (vi) the preferred session (general or workshop). Abstracts should be sent electronically as Word or PDF attachments to Hee-Don Ahn at hdahn konkuk.ac.kr no later than April 4, 2008. Abstracts will be reviewed by readers, and authors will be notified by April 31, 2007. Each speaker of the general and the workshop session will be allotted 20 minutes followed by 10 minutes for discussion. Accepted papers will be published in the Proceedings of 2008 Seoul International conference on Generative Grammar, which will be distributed to the conference participants. All presenters will be asked to provide camera-ready copies of their papers in publishable form by July 11, 2008. The text should be single-spaced and the general page limit is 20 pages including appendices and references. All the information about the conference is available on our website http://www.kggc.org. Participants are asked to check this web page to keep up to date regarding possible alterations and changes. Additional questions concerning the conference can be answered by sending a question to Myung-Kwan Park at parkmk dgu.edu. Workshop: Structuring Lexical Information in Syntax The characterization of words and structures and the division of grammatical labor between them have been a major component of the generative linguistic agenda. In recent years, a number of grammatical models have been advanced to defend the view that the core syntactic properties of lexical entries can be shouldered by various aspects of UG-determined structural templates (see Borer 2005 and Marantz 2001, among others). This view suggests that lexical entries, in particular, has very limited, if not null, inherent formal properties and can be just raw material which is pured into the structural mould to be assigned grammatical properties. Thus, under this view syntactic structures essentially provide unambiguous formulas for the semantics to interpret. In this workshop, we invite papers that deal with the issues concerning this particular neo-constructionist approach of nominal or verbal projections.
