Meeting Description:

Linguists still categorize language learning and bilingualism according to
traditional morphophonemic, syntactic and semantic features. But most of the
linguistic forms and concepts cannot be explained alone by phenomena of the
involved languages, kinds of acquisition phases or individual competence of
the speakers. We still have insufficient knowledge about cognitive mechanisms
behind language processing and the establishment and quality of
form-function-relationships.  

Of special interest is the discussion of relevant research in Cognitive
Sciences explaining phenomena of language learning and bilingualism. The aim
of the workshop is to introduce candidates of investigated data, which are
probably involved in several cognitive processes of language acquisition.


Call for Papers:

We especially welcome work in progress on investigations of German as a
foreign/second language and German in bilingualism in research fields such as
- morphology and word-formation
- syntax 
- language production strategies (written and spoken language)

We invite proposals for 30-minute presentations. Please send an abstract of up
to 300 words (excluding references) to christine.fredriksson at sprak.gu.se ,
christiane.andersen at sprak.gu.se by 30 May 2018. Include your name, affiliation
and email address in your abstract. Feedback and letters of acceptance will be
provided by 30 July 2018.
