2024. Special topic for WLW3: New perspectives on the history of the South Halmahera-West New Guinea subgroup. In this workshop, we welcome all contributions which engage with all aspects of the history of this Austronesian subgroup. Questions to be considered
include, but are not limited to: What are the challenges for understanding the history of SHWNG languages? How much is really known about their internal relationships and what is the evidence for them? What is the role of contact in the history of the group?
Are there alternatives to traditional subgrouping as explanations for linguistic similarities shared across the group?</span><span style="font-family:"Lato",sans-serif;color:black;mso-ligatures:none;mso-fareast-language:#2000"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
