Meeting Description:

The North American Conference on Afroasiatic Linguistics (NACAL) 
provides scholars from North America and around the world with a venue to 
discuss the Afroasiatic language phylum. Now in its 39th year, NACAL has 
held annual meetings since 1973. Previous meetings have been held in 
Albuquerque, Ann Arbor, Austin, Baltimore, Boston, Cambridge, Chicago, 
Los Angeles, Nashville, New Haven, San Diego, Seattle, Toronto, and 
several other cities in the United States and Canada. 

Call For Papers

Dear Colleagues:

Papers are solicited for the 39th annual meeting of the North American 
Conference on Afroasiatic Linguistics (NACAL 39), which will be held at the 
University of Texas at Austin, Saturday, February 12th, 2011 and Sunday, 
February 13th, 2011.

Our keynote speaker for NACAL 39 will be Grover Hudson, Professor 
emeritus of the Department of Linguistics and Germanic, Slavic, Asian, and 
African Languages, at Michigan State University.

Papers are sought on linguistic topics relevant to the languages of the 
Afroasiatic phylum (Chadic, Berber, Cushitic, Omotic, Egyptian, Semitic). 
Topics relating to all aspects of Afroasiatic languages will be considered, 
particularly including phonology, morphology, syntax, comparative 
linguistics, sociolinguistics, and epigraphy. These topics should be 
considered as general guidelines and are not intended to be exclusive. No 
original paper will be rejected on account of its subject, as long as it relates 
to the languages of the Afroasiatic phylum and meets the scholarly 
standards established by previous conferences.

Abstracts describing the precise topic treated with a length of approximately 
200-300 words can be sent as an electronic version (pdf and MS Word 
document) to the addresses specified on the registration page on the 
website (www.nacal.org). The deadline for submission is November 15, 
2010. For more information, please visit our website at  www.nacal.org.

Accommodations for NACAL 39 will be available at

AT&T Executive Education and Conference Center
1900 University Avenue, Austin, Texas 78705
