Meeting Description:

The Workshop on Innovations in Cantonese Linguistics (WICL) is a
conference held biennially in North America that focuses on new
advances in Cantonese Linguistics, including innovations in
methodologies, tools, and/or computing software. New approaches and
research on language variation within the Cantonese (or 粵 / 粤 “Yue”)
subgroup of the Chinese language family, language contact phenomena,
and new subfields and their interfaces are especially welcome.

WICL has been held every other year since 2012. The inaugural event —
the very 1st Workshop on Innovations in Cantonese Linguistics (WICL-1)
— was organized and held at The Ohio State University in Spring 2012,
on 16-17 March 2012.

The 7th Workshop on Innovations in Cantonese Linguistics (WICL-7) will
be held somewhat later than the usual spring schedule. WICL-7 will be
held in autumn, on 1-2 November 2024, for an in-person, on-site
conference at Brigham Young University, to be hosted by Professors
Dana Scott Bourgerie, Matthew Christensen, and Rachel Yu Liu. Stay
tuned for a link to the WICL-7 website when it is set up!

Call for Papers:

Abstracts are invited for 20-minute oral presentations related to
innovative research in any subfield of Cantonese linguistics and
related disciplines. Submissions are limited to one single-authored
paper and one joint-authored paper per person.

Abstracts must be written in English and on a single page, including
examples, figures, key references, etc.

Prepare two copies of the abstract in PDF format, one containing the
