/><b>Descripción</b><br /><p>Pluricentric languages exhibit regional
variation on all linguistic levels. However, while differences on the
phonetic and the lexical level are highly salient and perceived
easily, differing structures on the morphological or syntactical level
frequently pass unnoticed. As a result, linguistic discourse on
pluricentric languages is often restricted to the former two levels.
In contrast, this workshop will focus on the variation of syntax and
morphology, addressing questions and topics regarding standard
varieties of pluricentric languages like the following:<br />- Is
grammatical variation within a standard language as prevalent as
lexical or phonetic variation?<br />- Is morphological variation more
likely to occur than syntactic variation or vice versa? Why?<br />-
Does (near-)symmetry between the centres of a pluricentric language
facilitate grammatical variation?<br />- What is the (empirical and
theoretical) status of relative variants (variants that occur
throughout the language area, but that are more frequent in one centre
than in others) as opposed to absolute variants (variants that can be
attested in some areas only)?<br />- How does language contact
increase grammatical variation within pluricentric languages?<br /><br
/>Furthermore, we will deal with methodological issues concerning
research on grammatical variation within the standard varieties of
pluricentric languages, in particular, but not exclusively, with the
following questions:<br />- How are grammatical variants of a standard
language to be distinguished from ‘grammar errors’, based on,
e.g., dialectal interference? How can standard and sub-standard
varieties of pluricentric languages be differentiated?<br />- How can
the use of large electronic corpora provide new insights into
grammatical variation within standard languages?<br />- What steps
will have to be taken to improve the state of documentation of less
studied pluricentric languages?<br /><br />We would like to invite
linguists working on pluricentric languages, including (but not
restricted to) Arabic, Dutch, English, French, German, Hindi/Urdu,
Portuguese, Russian, Spanish and Swedish to participate in the
workshop.<br /><br />Please submit an anonymous abstract not exceeding
two pages including references, with 1'' margins and a font no smaller
than 12 point. Send a pdf file to mbusinger(at)ds.uzh(dot)ch<br />Your
email should include the following information: <br />- Name(s) of the
author(s) and contact information<br />- Affiliation <br />- Email
address <br />- Title of the abstract <br /><br />Accepted papers will
be allotted 20 minutes for presentation plus 10 minutes for
discussion.</p><br /><b>Área temática:</b> Lingüística de corpus,
