The Fifth Biennial International Conference on
Practical Linguistics of Japanese (ICPLJ5)

Second Call for Papers

March 4 (Sat.) & 5 (Sun.), 2006
San Francisco State University

************************************************************************
Aims and Scope
o	ICPLJ5 is intended to bring together researchers on the 
cutting edge of Japanese linguistics and to offer a forum in which 
their research results can be presented in a form that is useful to 
those desiring practical applications in the fields of teaching 
Japanese as a second/foreign language and computer-assisted language 
learning (CALL) technology.
o	All topics in linguistics will be fully considered, 
including:  phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, lexicon, 
pragmatics (discourse analysis), second language acquisition 
(bilingualism).
o	Abstracts submitted must represent original, unpublished research.

Publication
A book of "selected papers" (approximately 12) presented at the 
conference will be published.  The publication of the papers enables 
the ideas from the conference to reach an even larger audience around 
the world, further benefiting countless researchers, teachers, and 
their students.

Conference Language
The length of each presentation will be thirty minutes (20 minutes 
for exposition, 10 minutes for questions).  Presentations may be in 
either English or Japanese.

Submission Guidelines
All submissions should be mailed and postmarked by November 1, 2005.
(We regret that we cannot accept submissions by fax or e-mail.)
o	Three copies of a clearly titled one-page summary, on which 
the author is not identified (on A4 or letter-size paper, in 12 point 
type, with at least 1.25 inch [approximately 3 cm] margins on all 
sides).  This summary will be used for review, as well as for 
inclusion in the conference program book if your abstract is 
accepted.  Examples, figures, tables, and references may be given on 
a second page.  Please note the following:  (1) All conference papers 
will be selected on the basis of summaries submitted.  (2) Any 
information that may reveal your identity should not be included in 
the summary.  (3) Summaries will be accepted in Japanese or English. 
(4) If the language in which you would like to give your presentation 
differs from the language of your written summary, please let us 
know.  (5) No changes in the title or the authors' names will be 
possible after acceptance.
o	For each author, please attach one copy of the information 
form printed at the bottom of this sheet.

Deadline
All submissions must be postmarked by November 1, 2005.
