Linguistic Field(s): Applied Linguistics; Clinical Linguistics;
General Linguistics; Language Acquisition; Phonetics

Language research, from discourse analysis to articulatory details, is
usually based on typical speakers. A typical speaker is commonly
defined as a native speaker who uses broadly acceptable variants of
the language and has no speech or language disorders. However, finding
a typical speaker can sometimes be challenging. Due to today's social
interactions and changes, native speakers have been influenced by
other languages from an early age, both through the media and through
daily communication with non-native speakers. In addition, there are
more and more multilingual families and children growing up in
different language communities due to migration for economic or other
social reasons. Furthermore, defining broadly acceptable variants of
the language depends on many different factors and is subject to
different interpretations. Finally, kinematic measurements reveal
considerable inter- and intra-speaker variability in articulatory
movements when reaching the same acoustic goal. At the same time,
these articulatory variations are not necessarily audible, and they
are often considered irrelevant for phonemic differentiation. Such
findings, at least in some cases, raise doubts about where to draw the
line between typical and atypical speech and language. The conclusion
from all this is that the study of atypical production is extremely
important for a comprehensive understanding of speech and language
mechanisms. Therefore, the main goal of this conference is to
re-examine the boundaries and overlaps of typical and atypical at
every level of linguistic analysis. In this context, atypical variants
refer to cases of speech and language disorders, but also, in a
broader sense, to all deviations from the rules of language, i.e.
marginal cases. These issues can be approached from further
perspectives (but are not limited to):
- Foreign/second language acquisition
- First language acquisition
- Multilingualism
- Foreign language teaching
- Speech and language disorders
- Psycholinguistics
- Neurolinguistics
- Cognitive Science
- Morphology
- Phonology
- Phonetics
- Syntax
- Lexicology and lexicography
- Dialectology
- Phraseology
- Stylistics
- Rhetoric
- Discourse Analysis
- Cognitive Grammar
- Sociolinguistics
- Standards and norms in language
- Language and identity
- Metaphor, metonymy, conceptual integration
- (Public) communication
- Language of digital communication
- Language policy
- Gender and sex in language
- Translation
- Experimental linguistics
- Corpus Linguistics
- Data processing software
- Qualitative research software
- Information Technology
Participants are also invited to expand on the above topics and areas
by pursuing other topically similar issues and study areas.
Conference languages: Croatian and English
Submission
Presentations should not exceed 20 minutes. Each presentation will be
followed by a 10-minute discussion. The submission should include the
title of the presentation (maximum length: 150 characters), abstract
(300 to 350 words) and three to five key words. The title, abstract
and key words need to be submitted in:
- Croatian and English if the language of the presentation is
Croatian, or
- In English if the language of the presentation is English.
The abstract should propose a clear research problem, a viable
theoretical framework and a clear link between previous studies and
the research problem presented in the paper. The hypothesis and
research methodology need to be clearly presented, together with the
research results and potential scientific and/or professional
contribution of the work. We kindly ask you to limit the number of
references in the abstract to four. Abstracts should be proofread. All
abstracts will undergo an anonymous review process. All accepted
abstracts will be published in the Book of Abstracts and accessible to
all conference participants on CALS official web pages.
Submissions will open on 3rd February 2025, and the submission
deadline is 31st March 2025.
Presenters may submit only one paper proposal, exceptionally two (as
presenters or co-presenters).
Submission for presenters and listeners are available via:

Notification of acceptance: 14th April 2025.
