Meeting Description:

ISOL is a biennial international seminar held by the Postgraduate Program of
Linguistics, Faculty of Humanity, Andalas University, in collaboration with
Linguistics Society of Indonesia (MLI), Chapter Andalas University, Padang.
ISOL aims to provide a discussion platform for linguists, scholars, language
observers, researchers, educators and students of language studies to exchange
and share their knowledge and research of various aspects of language and
discuss both theoretical and practical challenges encountered and the
solutions adopted. The seminar is open to interested people from outside of
Indonesia.

It is undeniable that, like human beings, language also changes. The lexicon
once used in a language may no longer be used in the next few years. In
contrast, a lexicon that did not exist before appears and is widely used in
the next period. The pronunciation of a word may change from time to time.

Many factors can cause language changes. Contact between cultures or speakers
of different language, language policies made by the authorities or government
and the advancement of science and technology are among the factors
responsible for the change.

Social change in a society is triggered by various factors. In Indonesia,
reform is one of the causes of change in various aspects of social life,
including government, politics, economy and culture. All these changes are
recorded by or reflected in language.

In order to respond to the effects of social dynamics to language,  the
Graduate Program of Linguistics, Andalas University (UNAND), in cooperation
with the Indonesian Linguistic Society of UNAND branches, implemented the 3rd
ISOL with the theme ‘Language in Social Dynamics’.
