Meeting Description:

This conference is the main venue in North America for discussion of
theoretical and theory-driven research in South Asian Linguistics.  We
encourage submissions from researchers engaged in theoretically informed
field-based research and experimental/psycholinguistic approaches to South
Asian languages. The 11th (F)ASAL will be hosted virtually and synchronously
by the Institute of Linguistics at the University of Minnesota, on March
26-28, 2021.

This year’s (F)ASAL meeting will additionally feature a special half-day
session honoring the late Rahul Balusu, a South Asian linguist extraordinaire
and a dear friend of the (F)ASAL community and the greater linguistics
community. We envision that this special session will have talks (20-minute
oral presentations with an additional 10 minutes for questions) and posters
showcasing work that have been directly inspired by Rahul's work and the work
and people that he himself was inspired by. All of Rahul's linguistic works
are encapsulated in this memorial website
(https://sites.google.com/view/rahul-balusu-in-memoriam/home). Please submit
abstracts for research that is related to and inspired/informed by any aspect
of the topics, papers, research questions in Rahul's body of work.

Invited Talks: 
Special session: 
 - K.A. Jayaseelan (English and Foreign Languages University) 
 - Anna Szabolcsi (New York University) 

Main session: 
- Sakshi Bhatia (Central University of Rajasthan)
- Ayesha Kidwai (Jawaharlal Nehru University)
- Utpal Lahiri (English and Foreign Languages University)


Call for Papers: 

For the general session, abstracts are invited for talks (20-minute oral
presentations with an additional 10 minutes for questions) and posters from
researchers engaged in analyses and theory-informed description of any
phonetic/phonological, morphological, syntactic, and semantic phenomena in
South Asian languages, as well as theoretically informed field-based research,
and experimental/psycholinguistic/neurolinguistic approaches to South Asian
languages.

Abstracts must be anonymous. All abstracts, including data, are limited to two
single-spaced pages (A4 or US Letter) with 1-inch (2.5cm) margins and a
minimum font size of 12pt in the Times New Roman font. Only references and/or
large graphs, tables, pictures, and figures can be on a third page. The third
page should have no other text. Data should be interspersed throughout the
abstract. These guidelines apply to both the general sessions and the special
session. Violation of these guidelines will lead to automatic rejection of
abstracts. Authors may be involved in at most two abstracts and may be the
sole author of at most one abstract for the entire conference. Please indicate
if your submission(s) are for the special session or the general sessions
during submission on Easychair
(https://easychair.org/account/signin?l=5gqSRwv2iPr9cZbWN7asZt). 

(F)ASAL-11 will feature poster sessions in both the general and special
sessions. Poster presentations will be published as regular papers in the
proceedings. Poster presenters will be asked to give a short lightning round
presentation prior to the poster session.
