 FINAL CALL FOR PAPERS

 8th Japanese/Korean Linguistics Conference


 Cornell University ~ LSA Summer Institute

The Japanese/Korean Conference provides a forum for linguistic research

encourage presentations that investigates both languages.

Topics include (but are not limited to): syntax, semantics, typology,
discourse, pragmatics, grammaticalization, historical linguistics,
phonology, phonetics, morphology, first- and second language acquisition,
psycholinguistics, and sociolinguistics.

Presentations are 20 minutes long and will be followed by a 10-minute
discussion.

The proceedings of this conference will be published as Japanese/Korean
Linguistics 8 - CSLI, and distributed by Cambridge University Press.
