Meeting Description:

This is a satellite workshop of the International Congress of Phonetic
Sciences (ICPhS), to be held in Melbourne, Australia, in August 5-9, 2019.   
  
For over two decades, the intonation systems of many typologically varied
languages have been analyzed in the framework of the Autosegmental-Metrical
(AM) model of intonational phonology. However, there remain many languages
whose intonation system has not been analyzed, including languages with
typologically uncommon systems. This workshop aims to provide a forum to
broaden our understanding of intonational phonology, by introducing and
discussing the phonology and phonetics of the intonation of such languages.
Any work related to the intonational phonology of typologically rare or
understudied languages is welcome, but we especially welcome languages in the
Austronesian, Mayan, Slavic, Tibeto-Burman, and Turkic families as well as
other languages of the Americas and Central Asia. We also welcome any language
whose intonation system challenges the assumptions made in the AM framework of
intonational phonology.


Call for Papers:

The workshop will have several invited presentations as well as oral and
poster presentations from submitted works. Any work related to the
intonational phonology of typologically rare or understudied languages is
welcome, but we especially welcome languages in the Austronesian, Mayan,
Slavic, Tibeto-Burman, and Turkic families as well as other languages of the
Americas and Central Asia. We also welcome any language whose intonation
system challenges the assumptions made in the AM framework of intonational
phonology. 

If you are interested in presenting your work, please send a two-page abstract
(including figures, examples, and references; no anonymity is needed) in PDF
format to '2019intonation at gmail.com' with 'abstract' written in the subject
line.

Important Dates:

- Submission deadline: Friday, March 15, 2019
- Notification of acceptance: Sunday, March 31, 2019
- Workshop: Sunday, August 4, 2019 

All accepted abstracts will be posted on the Workshop homepage,
https://linguistics.ucla.edu/people/jun/IntonationWorkshop2019, and we plan to
include selected contributions in a book to be published by Oxford University
Press.
