26th International Lexical-Functional Grammar Conference 
Short Title: LFG21 

Date: 13-Jul-2021 - 16-Jul-2021 
Location: Online, Norway 
Contact: Contact TBA 
Contact Email: LFG21.organisation at gmail.com 
Meeting URL: https://ling.sprachwiss.uni-konstanz.de/pages/home/lfg/ 

Linguistic Field(s): Computational Linguistics; General Linguistics; Semantics; Syntax 

Meeting Description: 

LFG21 welcomes work within the formal architecture of Lexical-Functional
Grammar as well as typological, formal, and computational work within the
'spirit of LFG' as a lexicalist approach to language employing a parallel,
constraint-based framework. The conference aims to promote interaction and
collaboration among researchers interested in non-derivational approaches to
grammar, where grammar is seen as the interaction of (perhaps violable)
constraints from multiple levels of structuring, including those of syntactic
categories, grammatical relations, semantics and discourse.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: 
LFG21 is moving online – LFG21 will take place as an online event in the week
of July 13. 

Invited speakers:
Ida Toivonen (Carleton University, Canada) and Stephen Wechsler (University of
Texas at Austin, USA)
 

Announcement: 

Registration is now open for LFG21 Online, 13-15 July 2021, the annual
conference for anyone who works in, or is interested in, the Lexical
Functional Grammar framework.

The program is available on the conference website:
https://typo.uni-konstanz.de/lfg2021/ 

Registration is free, via the conference website or at
