Meeting Description: 

El 'Coloquio Thomas Smith-Stark: IV Conferencia sobre lenguas otomangues y
sus lenguas vecinas' se celebrará en la ciudad de Oaxaca el 16, 17 y 18 de
abril de 2010 y reunirá a diversos especialistas de las lenguas otomangues
y sus lenguas vecinas (entre ellas las lenguas mixe-zoques, el huave, el
nahuatl, etc).

Dedicamos el evento a la memoria del dr. Thomas C. Smith-Stark (1948-2009),
destacado lingüista de las lenguas mesoamericanas.

Es la cuarta serie de conferencias sobre lenguas otomangues y sus vecinos.
La primera fue la 'Conference on Otomanguean and Oaxacan Languages' (COOL)
celebrado en la Universidad de California, Berkeley en marzo de 2004.
Posteriormente la sede de las conferencias se cambió a la ciudad de Oaxaca
donde se ha celebrado el 'Coloquio Francisco Belmar' en abril de 2006 y el
'Coloquio María Teresa Fernández de Miranda' en abril de 2008.

The conference allows for talks on all dimensions of these languages.
Previous conferences have included sessions on ethnobiology, bilingual
education, historical linguistics, philology of colonial-period texts,
anthropological linguistics, laboratory phonology and even contemporary
literature and music. Descriptive linguistics has had a very strong
presence in the conferences. In this conference our invited speakers will
be discussing language documentation, philology of colonial texts and
descriptive linguistics. The programs of the previous COOL conferences are
available on line.
