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 Organisation: Heimir Freyr Vidarsson (Heimirfreyr.Vidarssonmeertens.knaw.nl) Marc van Oostendorp (Marc.van.Oostendorpmeertens.knaw.nl) Call for Papers: We invite short abstracts for presentations in English on any aspect of Dutch linguistics. Abstracts should not exceed 500 words, excluding title, author names, examples and references. Notification of acceptance will be given by February 22, 2011.
