The 52nd International Conference on Sino-Tibetan Languages and Linguistics is the premier international conference to do with all aspects of the documentation, description and analysis of languages of the Sino-Tibetan (= Trans-Himalayan) language family.
Submission Guidelines
Papers are invited which address any aspect of the languages and linguistics of the Sino-Tibetan (= Trans-Himalayan) language family. This includes, but is not necessarily limited to, phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, pragmatics, sociolinguistics, typology, and documentation, including field reports. Papers are also welcomed which address the study of languages which may fall outside of Sino-Tibetan, but which may be or have been in contact with Sino-Tibetan languages, when language contact or genealogical relationship is also a focus of the paper.
In observance of this International Year of Indigenous Languages, we particularly welcome papers specifically addressing the study and conservation of the many minority and Indigenous languages falling within the Sino-Tibetan family, and papers authored by a minority or Indigenous linguist.
Abstracts should be no more than 500 words, single-spaced, exclusive of data and references (if any), and should be written in English. Abstracts should be submitted via Easychair.org: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=icstll52. The submission deadline for paper abstracts is April 5, 2019. Notification will be approximately two weeks afterward.
