Linguistic Field(s): Semantics 

Meeting Description: 

SULA (The Semantics of Under-represented Languages in the Americas) 
brings together researchers working on languages or dialects spoken in the 
Americas which do not have an established tradition of work in formal 
semantics. One of the main strengths of this event is that research 
presented at it, typically involves primary fieldwork or experimentation as 
well as high-level theoretical analysis. The study of non-Indoeuropean 
languages in recent years has led to a rethinking of assumptions in formal 
semantics and the analysis of phenomena not studied before from a formal 
point of view. SULA has been one of the catalysts for the rapid expansion of 
cross-linguistic formal semantics within linguistics.

The Invited Speakers at SULA 6 are:

Suzi Lima (University of Massachusetts, Amherst)
Sarah Murray (Cornell University)
Tyler Peterson (Universiteit Leiden)
Christian Rathmann (Universitaet Hamburg)
Francisco Santiago (The Ulwa Language Project, Karawala, Nicaragua)
Philippe Schlenker (Institut Jean-Nicod)

SULA 6 is organized by Martina Faller and Andrew Koontz-Garboden at the 
Department of Linguistics and English Language at The University of 
Manchester.

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and 
as such can receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a 
registered 501(c) Non Profit organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-
6005986. These donations can be offset against your federal and 
sometimes your state tax return (U.S. tax payers only). For more information 
visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact your financial advisor.

Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will 
match any gift you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails 
your contacting your human resources department and sending us a form 
that the EMU Foundation fills in and returns to your employer. This is 
generally a simple administrative procedure that doubles the value of your 
gift to LINGUIST, without costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment 
to check if your company operates such a program.

Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
