We are pleased to announce that the Sixth International Conference on
Mongolic Linguistics (ML 2025) will be held in Istanbul, Turkey, from
September 7 to 11, 2025. The Conference will be based on the theme
“Language Contact of Mongolic: History and Present Condition”.
The Conference will be co-hosted by Department of Modern Turkic
Languages and Literatures & Mongolian Studies Center, Faculty of
Letters, Istanbul University, and School of Mongolian Studies, Inner
Mongolia University.
ML 2025 will serve as a comprehensive forum for exchange of novel
knowledge and experience in investigating various aspects of Mongolic
languages, especially those subsumed under the general theme of the
Conference. It builds on the outcomes of the previous international
conferences of the ML project (St. Petersburg, October 2013; Elista,
May 2016; Lindong Town, Baarin Left Banner, July–August 2018;
Ulan-Ude, October 2020; Ulaanbaatar, August 2023).
The following issues are expected to be discussed:
•       Language contact of Mongolic in synchronic and diachronic
perspectives;
•       Contact-induced language change in the history of Mongolic;
•       General trends and specific developments in historical and
modern Mongolic varieties;
•       Recent advances in Mongolic etymological studies;
•       Sociolinguistic situations in Mongolic-speaking areas;
•       Genetic and areal features of the Mongolic languages and
dialects;
•       Typology of Mongolic phonological, grammatical and lexical
systems;
•       Contemporary methods and approaches to the study of the
Mongolic languages;
•       Problems of classification and historical periodization of
Mongolic languages and dialects;
•       Principles and methods of modern Mongolic dialectological
studies.
This list of possible topics is by no means exhaustive or directive,
it just provides the framework of the Conference.
The working languages at the Conference will be English, Mongolian,
and Russian.
There is no conference fee. Unfortunately, the Organizing Committee
lacks funding to cover travel expenses and accommodation.
The organizers will provide participants with a list of recommended
hotels. The Conference will take place at the Department of Modern
Turkic Languages and Literatures & Mongolian Studies Center, Faculty
of Letters, Istanbul University, located at Balabanaga Mah., Ordu
Caddesi, No. 6, 34459 Laleli, Istanbul, Turkey.
During the Conference, certain sightseeing activities will be
provided, namely a guided tour to the archaeological sites of Troy and
Assos. Please note that the transportation and museum entrance costs
during the tour will be covered by the participants.
