Topics of the workshop:

We welcome contributions focusing on Romance L1 learners of any L2, involving
any of the following 5 broad themes:

- The acquisition of new phonological/phonetic/prosodic features in production
and/or perception by speakers of a Romance L1, or by simultaneous bilinguals
with at least one Romance language.

- Common characteristics and common difficulties encountered by Romance native
speakers learning an L2, such as tense-lax vowel contrasts, glottal fricative
/h/, aspirated stops, stress- timed rhythm, phonological vowel length, lexical
tones, prosodic realization of contrastive focus.

- Other phonetic characteristics of L2 speech by L1 Romance speakers.

- The validation of phonetic/phonological theories in the light of L2 data by
speakers whose L1 is a Romance language, or by simultaneous bilinguals with at
least one Romance language.

- Teaching techniques or materials addressing L2 pronunciation and
phonological awareness for Romance L1 learners of any L2.
