opposed to other sources of data.

evidence in theories of syntax and semantics, and focus on research that highlights the unique advantages of 
the experimental environment, as opposed to other sources of data.

- Maximum 500 words for the text of the abstract. The abstract title, text, examples, figures, and references 
must not exceed two pages.
- All abstracts will be reviewed anonymously. The abstract should not include the author’s name, affiliation, or

processor.
- To submit your abstract, send it in PDF format to tls.conference at gmail.com. Include the paper title and 
names of all authors and their affiliations in the body of the email.

Deadline: May 15, 2014.

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as such can receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered 501(c) Non Profit organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These donations can be offset against your federal and sometimes your state tax return (U.S. tax payers only).

Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match any gift you make to a non-profit organization.
