Linguistic Field(s): General Linguistics 

Meeting Description: 

The international conference NILCS 2020 will focus on novel perspectives and
approaches within the field of contact linguistics. This is a particularly
dynamic research field, which often interfaces with other research areas such
as sociolinguistics, theoretical linguistics, language acquisition, and
language planning, among others.

Studies on language contact are relevant to both past and contemporary
linguistic landscapes, where the encounter between two or more languages gives
rise to a wide array of contact-induced phenomena ranging from borrowings,
structural convergence, and code switching to the emergence of new varieties
such as pidgins, creoles, and mixed languages.

NILCS 2021 (originally, 2020) aims to bring together researchers working on
language contact from different perspectives with the purpose of enabling
fruitful encounters and discussions.
