Meeting Description: 

The 5th Workshop on Innovations in Cantonese Linguistics (WICL-5) will take
place on 18-19 April 2020, to be hosted by The Ohio State University,
Columbus, Ohio, U.S.A.  In the interest of keeping everyone safe, the
originally-planned on-site, one-day event has been switched to that of a
synchronous webinar event, to be held on Saturday evening and Sunday morning
of 18-19 April 2020, Eastern Daylight Time.

The WICL conference -- an event hosted every two years by different
institutions in North America -- focuses on new advances in Cantonese
Linguistics, including innovations in methodologies, tools, and/or computing
software. New approaches and research on language variation within the
Cantonese (or ''Yue'') subgroup of the Chinese language family, language
contact phenomena, and new subfields and their interfaces are especially
welcome.

Dates: Saturday evening & Sunday morning, EST, 18-19 April 2020
Place: To be hosted online via the Zoom webinar platform from The Ohio State
University and elsewhere in Columbus, Ohio, U.S.A.
