Meeting Description:
For Workshop Dutch Linguistics in Amsterdam.
Deadline: 15 February 2011
Dutch without any doubt is one of the best documented languages in the
world. One reason for this is that traditionally the number of linguists per
capita is relatively high in the Low Countries; but also scholars from all
around the world who are not (native) speakers of Dutch have provided
insight into the structure of the language. This workshop aims to bring
together these scholars to discuss new work on any aspect of Dutch
linguistics, including, but not limited to, sociolinguistics, psycholinguistics,
phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics and pragmatics. It is
our goal to promote high quality discussion on all aspects of Dutch
linguistics. The workshop will also mark the beginning of work on the so-
called 'Taalportaal', a big online grammatical description of Standard Dutch
(as well as Frisian).
The workshop is organized by the department of variation linguistics of the
Meertens Instituut of the Royal Academy of Arts and Sciences.
The language of the conference will be English.
Invited Speakers:
Geert Booij
Liliane Haegeman
