Meeting Description:

The Formal, Mental and Acquisitional Approaches to Language (ForMAAL)
research group at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology
(NTNU Trondheim) welcomes you to the workshop Formal Linguistics in
the Nordic Countries (FLiNC), 20-21 May 2025.

A network of linguists in the Nordic countries working in formal
perspective – Formal Linguistics in the Nordic Countries, FLiNC
(https://sites.google.com/view/flinc-formal-linguists-nordic/home) –
was launched at the MMSL workshop (Microvariation and Microchange in
the Scandinavian Languages) hosted by the Synergy group at the
University of Agder in May 2024. The ForMAAL group at NTNU in
Trondheim is happy to be welcoming formal linguists to a FLiNC
workshop in Trondheim in May 2025.

FLiNC aims to bring together linguists in the Nordic countries who
primarily focus on the form and structure of language, working within
any of the subdomains of theoretical linguistics – phonology,
morphology, the lexicon, syntax, semantics; as well as interfaces
between these domains, and with other domains such as language
acquisition, sociolinguistics, psycholinguistics, and so on. We aim to
be a forum for cutting-edge research and knowledge transfer and to
further stimulate networking and collaboration between formal
linguists in the Nordic countries, at any career stage and with a
focus on any language(s) or language family.

Invited speakers:
Sten Vikner, Aarhus University
Mikael Vinka, Umeå University
Sara Myrberg, Lund University

We draw your attention to the workshop Multilingual Processing in
Psycholinguistics and Technology (MPPT, https://www.ntnu.edu/isl/mppt)
to be held in Trondheim immediately subsequent to this workshop, May
22-23. Those interested in one of these workshops may consider
extending their stay in Trondheim to attend all or part of the other
workshop.

2nd Call for Papers:

We invite submissions addressing questions within formal and
theoretical linguistics, e.g. phonology, morphology, the lexicon,
syntax, semantics, or topics interfacing between or with these
domains. Formally-oriented work in pragmatics, psycholinguistics,
language acquisition (L1 or Ln), sociolinguistics, etc. is also
welcome. The work may address theoretical issues in any language(s)
(i.e. not restricted to languages of the Nordic countries). Although
the workshop is primarily directed towards linguists working in the
Nordic countries (broadly construed), linguists working in other parts
of the world are also welcome to submit.

Submit your abstract at
https://easyabs.linguistlist.org/conference/FLiNC/ (2 pages including
references, A4, 12pt Times New Roman, 2.5 cm margins)

Call for papers closes 15 January 2025 (end of day 'anywhere on
Earth'). Notification of acceptance mid-February.
