Call Deadline: 15-Feb-2025

Meeting Description:

LFG25 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.

Abstract submission deadline: 15 February 2025, 23:59 UTC-12 (midnight

SUBMISSIONS: TALKS AND POSTERS

The main conference sessions will involve 45-minute talks (30 min + 15
min discussion), and poster presentations. Contributions can focus on
results from completed as well as ongoing research, with an emphasis
on novel approaches, methods, ideas, and perspectives, whether
descriptive, theoretical, formal or computational. Presentations
should describe original, unpublished work.

Notification of acceptance: 31 March 2025
Conference: 22 July - 24 July 2025

SUBMISSION SPECIFICATIONS

The language of the conference is English, and all abstracts must be
written in English.

All abstracts should be submitted using the online submission system.
Submissions should be in the form of abstracts only. Abstracts can be
up to three A4 pages, including figures and references. Abstracts
should be in 11pt or larger type, with margins of at least 2cm on all
four sides, and should include a title. Omit name and affiliation
(including in PDF document properties), and avoid obvious
self-reference.

Please submit your abstract in .pdf format (or a plain text file).

The number of submissions is not restricted. However, in the interests
of high participation and broad representation, each author should be
involved in a maximum of two oral papers and can only be a single
author of one. There are no restrictions on poster presentations.
Authors may want to keep this in mind when stating their preferences
concerning the mode of presentation of their submissions.

All abstracts will be reviewed anonymously by at least three referees.
Papers accepted to the conference can be submitted to the refereed
proceedings, and will be published, subject to acceptance, online by
PubliKon at the University of Konstanz. See
http://web.stanford.edu/group/cslipublications/cslipublications/LFG/
for recent proceedings.
