Description:

The first SCCC took place in Paris in September 2016 and was followed up with SCCC-2 in 2018 and SCCC-3 in 2023 in Tbilisi. This year, SCCC comes back to Paris for its fourth edition.

Following up on its general theme, SCCC-4 will bring together linguists working on different aspects of the scientific study of all Caucasian languages with a particular focus on South-Caucasian languages. As in the prior meetings, SCCC will include several tutorials, presentation and poster sessions, to create as much space for (in)formal discussion as possible.

Tutorials: Spoken Georgian, Georgian Sign Language, Language documentation for maintenance, Svan, Megrelian, Laz, Tsova-Tush, Old Georgian

All areas of linguistic study of (South) Caucasian languages are welcome, including computational linguistics, language acquisition, morphology, neurolinguistics, phonetics, phonology, pragmatics, psycholinguistics, semantics, syntax, typology, and writing systems.

Abstracts are invited for 30min talks and for posters.
Abstracts should be anonymous and at most two pages long (A4, 1in margins on all four sides, easily readable font/size, e.g., Times New Roman 12pt), inclusive of data and references.
