[Algonquiana] Algonquian Morpho-Phonology Circle

[Natalie Weber]

We (Natalie Weber and Shanti Ulfsbjorninn) are writing to invite you to
join a monthly reading group on Algonquian morphophonology. We are
marketing heavily towards theoretical phonologists, as we believe there
many interesting generalizations in Algonquian languages which are not
well-known outside our community. That being said, Algonquianists are very
welcome!

Topics to be chosen by the members, and may include: allomorphy, vowel
harmony and spreading processes, syllabification and metrical stress, and
more.

or book chapter(s). Occasionally we will host practice talks. Please see
the attached flyer for more information.
