Meeting Description:

Tu+ is an annual workshop bringing together all aspects of linguistic research
on Turkic languages, as well as languages in contact with Turkic and those
spoken in geographic regions where Turkic languages are. 

Tu+ has been the venue for fruitful discussions and new collaborations on
Turkic and languages in contact with Turkic. The first Tu+ was held at UMass
Amherst in 2015, and Indiana University, UCLA & USC, NYU & Rutgers University,
University of Delaware, University of Toronto, and UConn have carried on this
tradition. 

The 8th edition of the Workshop on Turkic Languages and Languages in Contact
with Turkic - TU+8- will be hosted in 2022 by Harvard University (Cambridge,
MA). The conference will take place on March 4-5. 

Given the existing travel restrictions and COVID-19 concerns, the workshop
will be held in a hybrid format. Any author whose paper is accepted is
guaranteed a choice between presenting their work either in-person or
virtually. There will be camera equipment onsite which will provide the
ability to stream in-person events live, and enable both in-person and virtual
attendees to participate in discussions.

We encourage submissions of work in all the fields of linguistics, including
but not limited to syntax, semantics, pragmatics morphology, phonology,
phonetics, sociolinguistics, historical linguistics, and all relevant
interfaces. There will be oral presentations (20 min talk + 10 min questions)
and a poster session. Since 2019, all works presented at Tu+ have been invited
to be in a proceedings volume distributed by the Linguistic Society of
America, and the 2023 workshop will be no exception to that. 

Important dates:
Abstract submission deadline: December 9, 2022
Notification for acceptance: January 9, 2023
Conference dates: March 4-5, 2023

The keynote speakers will be announced later. 

You can send an email to us at tuplus8workshop at gmail.com if you have any
questions and/or comments. Please feel free to contact the conference
organizers directly as well:
