Meeting Description:

The aim of this workshop is to explore how heritage speakers dynamically move
between creative and routine language in narrations. Research on heritage
speakers has led to varying conclusions regarding their language competence
and performance. Oftentimes, what we now consider to be creative language use,
was considered to be sub-standard, even erroneous.  More recently however,
researchers embrace the view that non-canonicity does not result from lack of
proficiency but indicates linguistic reanalysis and the formation of a new
system (Polinsky 2008: 161). While experimental and corpus studies show that
heritage speakers may differ from both monolingual and L2 speakers, e.g. with
respect to syntactic structure, realization of grammatical categories or the
lexicon, emerging patterns fall within the spectrum of natural language
design. Kopotev et al. (2020: 1) hypothesize that ''heritage speakers deploy
fewer probabilistic strategies in language production compared with native
speakers and that their active knowledge of and access to ready-to-use
multiword units are restricted compared with native speakers''.


Call for Papers:

This workshop is part of the 45th Annual Conference of the DGfS in Cologne.
For more information on the 45th Annual Conference of the DGfS, please visit
the website of the conference (https://dgfs2023.uni-koeln.de/en/).

We invite contributions presenting heritage speaker data, preferably
narratives, which investigate the field between creativity and routine, for
example (but not limited to) register sensitivity, discourse openings and
closings, formulaic language and/or collocations. We want to discuss how we
can use the relative role of canonic and creative means of expression to
better understand and explain heritage language developments and general
developments of languages in contact.

Time for talks: 20 min presentation, 10 minutes discussion
Group Language: English

Abstracts should be anonymously submitted through EasyChair
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=45thdgfs2023ag14 in PDF format and not
exceed 300 words excluding references. Abstracts should clearly address the
topic of the workshop, state the research question(s), the method, and the
(expected) results. Please also include a list of up to 5 keywords. 

The workshop will most likely take place in person. Please be prepared to
travel to the conference to be able to take part in it.
A limited number of travel grants of up to 500 Euro are available for accepted
contributions by DGfS members without/with low income.

Deadline for abstract submission: August 15, 2022, 23:59 CET 
Notification of acceptance: Early September, 2022 

Please note that the regulations of the German Linguistics Society (DGfS) do
not allow workshop participants to present two or more papers in different
workshops. However, you are allowed to be listed as co-authors in more than
one presentations.
