Meeting Description:

The annual conference of the Southern African Linguistics and Applied
Linguistics Society (SALALS), with participation by the South African
Association of Language Teachers (SAALT), will be hosted in 2021 by the
Department of General Linguistics at Stellenbosch University with support from
the South African Centre for Digital Language Resources (SADiLaR). 

The Department of General Linguistics is honoured to be the host organiser
this year as it is the 50+ anniversary celebration of the founding of the
department – the Department opened its doors in 1970 and has overseen the
linguistic education of many undergraduate and postgraduate students, as well
as producing innovative research over the last 50 years.

The conference will be held online. Come and join us virtually for three days
of stimulating debate and discussion – abstracts are invited for papers in all
areas of general linguistics, applied linguistics and language practice.


Call for Papers: 

The aim, first and foremost, is to make the 2021 conference as accessible and
multilingual as possible. In order to do this, the conference will take the
following format:

Papers and posters will be pre-recorded by presenters and all presentation
materials, including slides/posters and videos, will be hosted on the
conference’s Open Science Framework page prior to the conference.
Papers/posters can be in any of the South African official languages, as well
as South African Sign Language (SASL). Pre-recorded presentations in languages
other than English will be provided with English closed captions/subtitles,
while papers related to sign language linguistics will be interpreted
into/from SASL. 

In addition to the pre-recorded presentations, the conference will consist of
live events via Zoom, including keynote presentations, panel sessions, Q&A
sessions for the general session presentations and posters, and social events.

The deadline for submission of abstracts for posters or talks at the 2021
SALALS virtual conference is 24 May, 2021, with notification of acceptance in
the week of 28 June, 2021.

Abstract guidelines:

All abstracts must be submitted online via EasyChair:
https://easychair.org/cfp/SALALS2021

Abstracts are invited for papers or posters in all areas of general
linguistics, applied linguistics and language practice. Please indicate your
preference for paper or poster in the keywords field of your abstract
submission. The length of the abstract must not exceed 500 words, including

Authors who wish to submit more than one abstract should fill out a separate

All abstracts will be reviewed, and the final selection will be made by the
