For its 26th International Conference, the African Association for

Call for Papers:

The 26th International Conference of the African Association for Lexicography
(AFRILEX) will be hosted by the Faculty of Education at Stellenbosch
University from 27 to 29 June 2022.
Abstracts are invited on any aspect of dictionary research, practical
lexicography or terminology. Abstracts from disciplines related to practical
or theoretical lexicography/terminology are also invited, but they should have
a demonstrable lexicographic focus.
Proposals for special sessions are welcome. 

IMPORTANT
- All submissions will be adjudicated.
- The conference language is English.
- Expected format of the conference – at this stage it is not certain whether
the conference will be held live and in person, or virtual, or in a hybrid
format. In the case of a virtual/hybrid conference, presenters will be
expected to pre-record their presentations and submit their recordings prior
to the conference.

DEADLINE FOR ABSTRACT SUBMISSION
Please submit abstracts to reach AFRILEX before 28 February 2022.

ABSTRACT FORMAT
Abstracts should be formatted according to the template (see next page), and
should be between 600 and 800 words long for adjudicators to make informed
judgements on the central argument of the paper, especially given that
conference proceedings are not published. Abstracts should contain the
following elements: a central argument, methodology, and some (preliminary)
conclusions. All citations should be accounted for in a list of references.
Submissions that do not comply with these requirements will unfortunately be
rejected.

ABSTRACT SUBMISSION
Abstracts should be sent by e-mail to ahdp at sun.ac.za 

PROCESS AND PROCEDURES
Receipt of abstracts will be acknowledged and feedback will be given to
authors as soon as the abstracts are received back from the adjudicators.
Abstracts of accepted papers will be distributed during the conference. MS
PowerPoint Presentation facilities will be available. As a backup, presenters
are invited to e-mail their presentation to the organiser ahead of the
conference.

PRESENTERS PLEASE NOTE
It is compulsory for presenters of papers and special sessions to register
before 20 May 2022.
