TLS 9: The Morphosyntax of Lesser Studied Languages

Texas Linguistics Society 9 

Morphosyntax of Underrepresented Languages 
University of Texas at Austin 
November 4-6, 2005

The goal of TLS 9 is to provide a forum for the presentation of original
research on morphosyntactic phenomena in languages that are underrepresented in
the literature, that is, less studied languages and/or less-studied varieties of
more-represented languages. 

We welcome the submission of papers on topics including (but not limited to):
voice, case-marking, agreement, cliticization, complex predicate formation, verb
serialization, noun incorporation, morphological blocking, lexical integrity,
word order variation. 

In addition to the above stated goals, the conference encourages comparisons
between different theoretical frameworks. 

Invited Speakers:
