We are pleased to announce the 18th Conference on Formal Description
of Slavic Languages (FDSL 18), to be held on September 22–24, 2025, at
the University of Wrocław, Poland. FDSL 18 will feature a main session
and a workshop on Formal Approaches to Historical Slavic Linguistics.
We invite submissions for 35-minute slots (25/30-minute presentations
followed by 5/10-minute discussions).
Main Session
Invited speakers: Marko Simonović (University of Graz), Marta Ruda
(Jagiellonian University), Berit Gehrke (Humboldt University of
Berlin), Peter Arkadiev (University of Potsdam)
We invite contributions dealing with formal aspects of Slavic
linguistics, including but not limited to syntax, morphology,
phonology, semantics, pragmatics, psycholinguistics, and computational
linguistics. We encourage submissions that engage with both
theoretical and experimental approaches, contribute to
cross-linguistic comparisons, and explore new methodologies or data
sources relevant to Slavic languages. Papers that address interfaces
between different linguistic components or provide insights into
understudied Slavic varieties are particularly welcome.
Workshop: Formal Approaches to Historical Slavic Linguistics
Invited speaker: Hakyung Jung (Seoul National University)
We are pleased to invite submissions for the Workshop on Formal
Approaches to Historical Slavic Linguistics, to be held as part of the
Formal Description of Slavic Languages conference. This workshop aims
to bring together scholars working on diachronic aspects of Slavic
languages from a generative perspective. In comparison to studies on
Germanic and Romance languages, research on Slavic diachrony has so
far been relatively limited. Therefore, we intend to foster
discussions on language change in Slavic. We welcome contributions
that adopt a formal approach to the study of language, which address
any aspect of diachronic Slavic linguistics, including:
 • Phonological, morphological, semantic, and syntactic change in
Slavic languages
 • Language contact and its impact on language change
 • Corpus-based approaches to diachronic variation in Slavic languages
 • Grammaticalization and degrammaticalization
 • Typological shifts and isolated changes versus parametric changes
in Slavic
 • Methodological developments in historical linguistics
Submission Guidelines:
Abstracts must not exceed 2 pages (including examples, graphs,
references). They should have 2.5 cm or 1 inch margins, and should be
single-spaced, in a font size not smaller than 12 pt.
Examples, graphs, etc., should be intertwined in the text (rather than
placed at the end).
Abstracts must be anonymous (nothing in the abstract or the document
should identify the authors) and must be submitted in PDF format.
Each author may submit one single-authored and one co-authored
abstract, or two co-authored abstracts.
Please submit abstracts via OpenReview, indicating whether the
abstract is intended for the main session, the special session, or
either.
