Meeting Description:

The tenth Syntax of the World's Languages conference will take place
in Potsdam, Germany, between September 8-12th, 2025, at the University
of Potsdam, Campus Am Neuen Palais. In the same spirit as previous
conferences in this series (SWL I, Leipzig 2004; SWL II, Lancaster
2006; SWL III, Berlin 2008; SWL IV, Lyon 2010; SWL V, Dubrovnik 2012;
SWL VI, Pavia 2014; SWL VII, Mexico City 2016; SWL VIII, Paris 2018;
SWL IX, Lima 2024), SWL X will provide a forum for linguists working
on the syntax of less widely studied languages from a variety of
perspectives.

The main purpose of the SWL conference series is to enlarge our
knowledge and understanding of syntactic diversity. Contributions are
expected to be based on first-hand data of individual languages or to
adopt a broadly comparative perspective. The discussion of theoretical
issues is appreciated to the extent that it helps elucidate the data
and is understandable without prior knowledge of the relevant theory.
All theoretical frameworks are equally welcome. Papers that adopt a
diachronic or comparative perspective are also welcome, as are papers
dealing with morphological or semantic issues, as long as syntactic
issues also play a role.

Call for Papers:

We welcome submissions for 20 minute talks, which will be followed by
10 minutes of discussion. Anonymous abstracts in .pdf format of no
more than 1 page (plus possibly an additional page for examples and
references) should be submitted electronically via the EasyAbs website
(https://easyabs.linguistlist.org/conference/SWL10/). Abstracts must
be written in English, with fully glossed examples conforming to the
Leipzig glossing rules. The deadline for all abstract submissions is
February 27, 2025.

Each individual may participate in up to two abstracts, with a maximum
of one single-authored submission. We will also offer slots for
posters, if you would like your paper to be considered for a poster
slot, please indicate so during your submission. The conference will
reserve some space for workshops. If you are interested in organizing
a workshop, please, contact us (swl10.conference at gmail.com) with a
2-page proposal before December 15, 2024.
