BACKGROUND

We are pleased to announce the Twenty-Second Manchester Phonology
Meeting (22mfm). The mfm is the UK's annual phonology conference, with
an international set of organisers. It is held in late May every year
in Manchester (central in the UK, and with excellent international
transport connections). The meeting has become a key conference for
phonologists from all over the world, where anyone who declares
themselves to be interested in phonology can submit an abstract on
anything phonological in any phonological framework. In an informal
atmosphere, we discuss a broad range of topics, including the
phonological description of languages, issues in phonological theory,
aspects of phonological acquisition and implications of phonological
change.

------------------------

SPECIAL SESSION

There is no conference theme - abstracts can be submitted on anything,
but a special themed session has been organised for Friday afternoon,
on 'Epenthesis'. This will feature the invited speakers listed above
(in alphabetical order) and will conclude in an open discussion
session when contributions from the audience will be very welcome.

ABSTRACT SUBMISSION

* There is no obligatory conference theme for the 22mfm - abstracts

EasyAbstracts site by 10th February 2014:

and a half hours. When you submit your abstract, you will be asked to
indicate whether you would be prepared to present your work (i) either
as a talk or a poster paper or (ii) only as a poster.

* We aim to finalise the programme, and to contact abstract-senders by
early March, and we will contact all those who have sent abstracts as
soon as the decisions have been made.
