Meeting Description:

The fundamental role played by prosody in the achievement of a successful native-non-native interaction has already gathered many researchers, students and listeners in two international conferences, held at the University of Naples L’Orientale in 2011 and at the University of Padua in 2012. The relevance of these two events and the presented works resulted in two reference volumes in the area of L2 prosody, respectively: De Meo A., Pettorino M. eds., Prosodic and Rhythmic Aspects of L2 Acquisition. The case of Italian, Cambridge Scholars Publishing, 2012; Busà M.G.,Stella A. eds., Methodological Perspectives on Second Language Prosody, CLEUP, 2012.

In the wake of previous events and results, ML2P 2015 invites proposals addressing any aspect of L2 prosody, but with a special focus on the interplay between Chinese and any of the Romance languages. The increasing presence of Chinese people in Romance-language countries and the growing interest in the Chinese language and culture in Europe have both created the need to pay particular attention to the communication between Chinese and Romance-language speakers.

The conference is organized by the Linguistic Center of the University of Naples L’Orientale – CILA, in collaboration with the Confucio Institute at the University of Naples L'Orientale and the GSCP (SLI Special Interest Group on Spoken Communication), with the patronage of AISV (Italian Association for Speech Sciences).
