			--- Call for Papers ---

	   Workshop on the Syntax of Verb Initial Languages

the National Science Foundation.

The syntax of many unrelated verb initial languages are surprisingly
similar in ways that might have an explanation in terms of Universal
Grammar. In this workshop, we bring together researchers who work on a
wide variety of verb initial languages to consider such questions as:
Is there a universal derivation of V-initial order? Are there any true
syntactic correlates to the order? What explains these correlates?
While the workshop will focus on theoretical explanations for
typological properties, papers on any aspect of the syntax of verb
initial languages are welcome.

Call for papers

We have a limited number of slots available for 30min talks (+15 for
discussion). 5 copies of anonymous abstracts, of no more than 1 page,
+ 1 page for data/references (12 point font, 1 inch margins) should be
submitted to:

		Verb Initial Syntax Workshop, Program Committee
		Department of Linguistics
		Douglass 200E
		University of Arizona,
		Tucson AZ 85721 USA

Authors should also include a separate page with address and contact
information.

Deadline:	October 31, 2002.

Electronic submissions must arrive before 5pm PST. They must be in PDF
format (Sorry no other formats are acceptable), and should be sent to
carnie at u.arizona.edu.

Pending budgetary availablity, we may have some travel funds for
abstract-selected speakers.

Notes for Contributors

E-mail submissions are accepted at TJL at nccu.edu.tw and hardcopy
submissions should be sent, in triplicate and a soft copy on disk, to:

Editors, Taiwan Journal of Linguistics

Taiwan Journal of Linguistics publishes one volume per year, with a
Spring issue and a Fall issue. Both Word (6.0 or above) and PDF files
are acceptable. A paper should not exceed 40 pages
single-spaced. Manuscripts will be sent to two reviewers
immediately. The author(s) of each paper will receive five copies of
the journal issue when the paper is published.

Manuscripts initially submitted to Taiwan Journal of Linguistics may
follow the style sheet of any established linguistics
journal. However, once accepted for publication, an article must
conform strictly to the style sheet below. In order to achieve a
single standard for linguistic publications in Taiwan, the same style
sheet of Language and Linguistics, another linguistics journal in
Taiwan, is adopted. Please note the following conventions:

1. Start the sections from 1 and order subsections as follows:
1.
	1.1
	1.1.1

2. Number examples as follows:
(1)
(2) a.
b.
Examples should be numbered consecutively throughout the whole paper.
Use straight quote to indicate prime, e.g., a'.

3. Use footnotes, not endnotes. Use an asterisk at the end of the
title to refer to a footnote of acknowledgments. Numbers of other
footnotes, starting from 1, should also run consecutively throughout
the whole paper.

4. The font used is Times New Roman. Use italic or bold for emphasis.

5. Use the following citation formats: Smith (1991), Smith (1991:234),
(Smith 1991), (Smith 1991:234).

6. Examples of references (note the use of punctuation marks within
references):
