Meeting Description:

The annual conference of the Australian Linguistic Society is a

a day of masterclasses. The conference traditionally has a focus on
Australian and other Indigenous languages of the Pacific area, but it
welcomes the presentation and discussion of papers on all subfields of
linguistics and interdisciplinary topics.

We invite abstracts for papers for presentation at the Annual
Conference of the Australian Linguistic Society held at The Australian
National University from 26 until 29 November 2024. The conference
will be held in person. We welcome papers on all aspects of
linguistics.

Please submit an abstract of your paper, maximum one A4 page of text,
including title. The abstract may also include an additional A4 page
of examples, figures, tables and references. Each abstract should be
in a single file in PDF (*.pdf) format, in 12-point font with 2cm on
all margins. On the additional page, 10-point font may be used. The
abstract must be anonymous and should not include any author names or
affiliations. Abstracts should be submitted online via the ALS 2024
EasyChair website (if you don’t have an EasyChair account you will
have to create one):

https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=als2024
Deadline for abstracts: 17 June 2024
Notification of acceptance: 22 July 2024

As part of the EasyChair online submission form, you will be asked to
supply author name(s) and affiliation(s), keywords and presentation
title. You will also be asked to select one indicative primary field
of linguistics from the choices given. The primary field will be used
to assign your abstract to the appropriate Area Chair. You will also
have the chance to indicate whether you’d like to submit your abstract
to one of the themed sessions (see below). All abstracts will be
reviewed anonymously with feedback given to the author(s). Abstracts
for themed sessions that are of sufficient quality but cannot be fit
into the session by the session organisers will be included in the
general program.

Abstract Review Criteria
Each abstract will undergo a double-blind review. The reviewers will
consider the degree to which each abstract:
•       situates the study within its research context and
demonstrates a clear theoretical, methodological and/or practical
contribution to the field;
•       coherently articulates its topic and objectives;
•       outlines the data being analysed; and
•       is of potential interest to an ALS audience
