The West Coast Conference on Formal Linguistics, or WCCFL (pronounced
/ˈwɪkfəl/) is an annual linguistics conference, usually held in the spring at
a university in western North America. Research presented at WCCFL can focus
on any theoretical or formal aspect of natural language analysis, including
phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics and discourse structure,
and their interfaces.

For questions, please contact the organizing committee at
wccfl2022 at stanford.edu

and Beth Levin)


2nd Call for Papers:

The Stanford Department of Linguistics is pleased to invite abstracts for
submission to WCCFL 40.

Main Session: 
Abstracts are invited for 20-minute talks on any theoretical or formal aspect
of natural language analysis, including phonetics, phonology, morphology,
syntax, semantics, and pragmatics, and their interfaces. We welcome
submissions that draw on a broad array of approaches and methodologies,
including fieldwork, corpus analysis, experimental and psycholinguistic work.

Special Session on Focus, Prosody, and Ellipsis: 
WCCFL 40 will include a special session on Focus, Prosody, and Ellipsis. We
encourage submissions that engage with the interaction of focus and prosodic
factors as they relate to the matching relation between the antecedent and
ellipsis site, and to the licensing of ellipsis. As in the main session, we
welcome submissions that draw on a broad array of approaches and
methodologies, including fieldwork, corpus analysis, experimental and
psycholinguistic work.

Specifications for Abstracts:

— Abstracts must be in PDF format. 
— Abstracts must not exceed two pages of letter-sized or A4 paper, including
data and references. 
— Abstracts should have 1″ margins on all sides and use a font no smaller than
11 point. 
— Abstracts should have a clear title.
— Abstracts and their metadata should not identify the author(s). 
— Submissions are limited to one individual and one joint abstract per author,
or two joint abstracts per author. 
— Abstracts should not present work that has already been published or
accepted for publication.

Note: WCCFL 40 will give preference to new work. For this reason, during the
abstract submission process, authors will be asked to inform the Organizing
Committee whether their work is under review for publication or has been
submitted or accepted for presentation at a major conference. Authors should
also notify the Organizing Committee promptly of any change in status of their
submissions. (Note that this information will not be shared with reviewers.)

Instructions for Abstract Submission: 

— The abstract must be submitted electronically using EasyChair at
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=wccfl2022.
—  Abstract submission deadline: 11:59pm PST on Friday, December 17, 2021.

Please send any questions to the WCCFL Organizing Committee at
wccfl2022 at stanford.edu.
