Meeting Description: 

“Variation in Language Acquisition” is a conference focusing on the
acquisition of sociolinguistic variation in multilingual and multidialectal
contexts in first and second or foreign languages. ViLA 3 aims to bring
together the growing amount of research that considers the ability to perceive
and employ variation in speech an integral part of the language acquisition
process.

The conference comes as the third one of this kind, after a workshop in 2012
in Münster, Germany, and a conference in Grenoble, France, in 2014. ViLA 3
will take place in Salzburg, Austria. 

The following invited speakers have confirmed their participation:

Stéphanie Barbu, Université Rennes 1, France
Gunther de Vogelaer, Universität Münster, Deutschland
Mercedes Durham, Cardiff University, United Kingdom
Carla Hudson-Kam, University of British Columbia, Canada

The conference aims to cover the following four thematic issues:

- Child acquisition of dialectal varieties of the first language
- Child second language acquisition within multilingual/multidialectal
communities
- Lifelong acquisition of language-internal variation in the case of second
language learning in contact with native speakers (e.g. study abroad,
migration), and learning about sociolinguistic variation in the foreign
language classroom
- Lifelong second dialect acquisition.
